The ๐๐๐ ๐จ๐ ๐๐จ๐ฉ๐ ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ is more than just a build โ itโs a powerful symbol of resilience, compassion, and what becomes possible when a community unites with purpose. This heartfelt project is made possible through a generous collaboration between ๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ฌ๐ข๐ ๐ง๐ฌ and her trusted construction partner, ๐&๐ ๐๐๐ง๐จ๐ฏ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐ฌ. Together, they share a bold and beautiful vision: to complete this home entirely through ๐๐จ๐ง๐๐ญ๐๐ ๐ฅ๐๐๐จ๐ซ, ๐ฆ๐๐ญ๐๐ซ๐ข๐๐ฅ๐ฌ, ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐๐๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐๐ฅ ๐ฌ๐๐ซ๐ฏ๐ข๐๐๐ฌ, ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ข๐ง๐๐ง๐๐ข๐๐ฅ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ญ๐ซ๐ข๐๐ฎ๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐ฌ, turning generosity into a lasting foundation for someone in need. What makes this home truly unique is its potential to be fully customized for accessibility โ thoughtfully designed to support a disabled homeowner or to serve as a safe haven for someone who has overcome hardship and is ready for a new beginning. We are currently reviewing applications from qualified first-time homebuyers, and we canโt wait to celebrate with the family who will soon call this beautiful space their own.
This house is also extra special because it marks the eighth and final home in our New Preston development โ completing a remarkable neighborhood built on a generous land donation and years of community support. With this last build, we bring an incredible chapter to a close โ and we hope youโll be part of its final, most heartfelt moment.
