Housing Sewanee, Inc.: The Story

Housing Sewanee, Inc. was founded in 1993 shortly after the visit of the inspirational founder of Habitat for Humanity, Millard Fuller. Since then, the organization has built 18 houses, working with families, providing no-interest loans and financial counseling, and marshaling volunteers who gladly and energetically help with the construction of fine, quality homes. Currently, HSI is building an energy efficient home on Sherwood Rd. in a new development called Sherwood Springs.

The Sherwood Springs project provides an opportunity to think with families not only about the cost of a house but also the cost of operating a house. As much as possible, the development will have shared infrastructure and will feature advanced HVAC, superb insulation, and energy efficient design.

The first home is under construction now and is scheduled to be complete in 2018. It will be a demonstration home that employs several energy saving techniques.
