New Hampshire Housing commits funds to Rosewald Farm

-

Bedford, NH – May 19, 2009 – (RealEstateRama) — At its recent meeting, the Board of Directors of New Hampshire Housing Finance Authority approved financing for Woods Edge Apartments at Rosewald Farm, phase two, in Hillsborough.

The site is home to a functional farmhouse (circa 1700), located on a 37-acre land parcel near Fox State Forest, that serves the needs of people who have autism and other developmental disabilities. Federal HOME Investment Partnership Program funds were committed to this project to allow for the creation of eight additional units of resident housing that mimic eight existing units constructed in phase one. The project developer is Farmstead of New England Inc., a social service agency that has created this unique community to provide residents with housing, meals, the opportunity for meaningful work, and numerous options for recreational and social activities.

Project improvement will add eight one-bedroom, handicap-accessible units designed to meet the needs of adults living on site. Each apartment will have its own kitchen and bathroom with separate entrances. These units are meant to house individuals who can live more independently because they do not require the close supervision that residents living in the farmhouse require.

New Hampshire Housing is a nonprofit, public benefit corporation established by the state Legislature. New Hampshire Housing operates a number of programs designed to assist low- and moderate-income persons to obtain housing. Since its inception, New Hampshire Housing has helped nearly 37,000 families purchase their own homes and has been instrumental in financing the creation of more than 14,000 multi-family housing units. More information about single family and multi-family housing programs offered by New Hampshire Housing can be found on the agency’s Web site, www.nhhfa.org.
