PASO ROBLES | VINE STREET
Opening doors for nine local families
In December 2024 we welcomed nine families home on Vine Street in Paso Robles. Read on to learn more about this build, our Partner Families, and what this project brings to this community.
Nine homes…
Each Vine St. home is equipped with energy-efficient features and furnished with responsibly sourced materials and finishes. These homes are detached, single-family, two-story residences with 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms. There is a shared neighborhood space.
Nine families…
Each Partner Family is committed to the mission of Habitat SLO County, serving 250 sweat equity hours toward the construction of their homes. Families must qualify for an affordable mortgage, and demonstrate a need for affordable housing.
Partner Families include an analyst, an office technician, a pharmacy technician, a bank teller, a paraeducator, a wine technician, a mechanic, a maintenance worker, and an in-home caregiver to name a few.
Many futures.
Habitat Homeowners enter into a partnership that creates strength, stability and self-reliance in our community. Improving affordable homeownership leads to numerous outcomes that extend beyond the house, such as greater economic stability, access to quality education, increased civic and social engagement, better health, and a reduced environmental footprint.
Affordable homeownership allows residents to build their legacy in this community.
