Wilkes Habitat for Humanity has built 20 homes here in Wilkes County since being founded almost 18 years ago, but the organization experienced an unexpected (and much welcomed) first when a gracious supporter donated this beautiful 3 bedroom, 2 bath home to the affiliate in December 2008. The home is located on Luffman Road in Ronda, and is being sold to raise funds in direct support of our afforable housing mission.

 

The move-in ready home sits on a nice 1 acre parcel in a private setting, and has an additional 1000 square feet of unfinished space upstairs. So if you or anyone you know is in the market, and would like to support the mission of Wilkes Habitat for Humanity along with your purchase of an attractive new home, look no further than Ronda, NC. The home is listed by Blair & Ward Properties, and is available for showing at your convenience.

 

We are so grateful for this donation, and look forward to the many families the funds from its sale will touch as we continue to build safe, affordable housing here in Wilkes County. Whether it’s a monetary contribution, a donation of property, or donations of items for resale at the affiliate’s ReStore, it really goes to show that there are many ways to financially support the mission of Wilkes Habitat for Humanity. We cannot express how truly thankful we are for our many faithful supporters.
