Homestead Gardens is a unique collaboration between four nonprofit affordable housing partners — Self-Help Ventures Fund, CASA, Community Home Trust, and Habitat for Humanity of Orange County, NC — along with the Town of Chapel Hill to provide a one-of-a-kind, 100% affordable residential community in Chapel Hill, NC. The project includes 87 units in a mix of supportive housing apartments, and townhomes that provide opportunities for rental and homeownership in a variety of sizes, serving incomes from below 30% of Area Median Income up to 115% of Area Median Income.

Homestead Gardens is an ambitious collaboration that has been in the works for over six (6) years. We are excited to break ground on this valuable housing project for the community.
