Project 1

Leelanau REACH has developed and sold its first house, without any government funds. The home was built in 1973, and donated to Leelanau County in April of 2005. The County granted the home to Leelanau REACH for its first housing project.

With support from Bob Biggs Construction and Northwestern Bank and Trust, REACH was able to re-develop the home and sell it as an affordable home.

The 1728 sq. ft. three bedroom, 1 1/2 bath home was completely re-developed including a new two-car garage. Homebuyer Christopher Carlson was very delighted to be able to buy an “almost new” home for his family at an affordable price.
