Community housing provider (CHP), Housing Trust, has begun work on a $2.4m affordable housing project in Flinders, NSW.

The Housing Trust development will be built on Willinga road and will feature two three-bedroom villas and five two-bedroom villas. One of the two-bedroom villas will also incorporate disabled access in its design.

This development will be Housing Trust’s third in 12 months, as the CHP continues to provide affordable housing for Illawarra. A total of $10m has been committed to building properties in Bulli, Corrimal and Flinders.

“We’re looking at a very substantial ongoing investment into the community which is not just creating homes but keeping money and jobs in the community and looking after families that are here.

“We’re thrilled to be able to be making this investment and commitment to the Shellharbour community,” CEO Michele Adair said.

The Flinders villas are expected to be complete by early 2020, with tenants moving in soon after.
