SOUTHEASTERN NC Cape Fear Habitat for Humanity submitted a rezoning request to build an 11-home project in Castle Hayne, in a bid to bring a collection of affordable homes to a rural region of the county.
The current zoning permits an eight-lot development on 5 acres. Habitat wants to increase the density by three lots, said Lauren McKenzie, director of finance and operations for the nonprofit.
“That location, especially in Castle Hayne, is going to be a new community for us,” she said. “It really supports the affordable-housing model because it’s still close enough to where families can benefit from access to downtown Wilmington services, but they can also enjoy the benefits of rural living.”
