A new housing project aimed specifically at seniors has opened in Pinehouse.

 

The rental housing unit for low- to moderate- income seniors was jointly funded by the federal and provincial governments, and will be owned and operated by the Village of Pinehouse.

 

The dwelling consists of four two-bedroom single detached units.

 

The $425,000 unit includes “green” features such as the use of renewable energy for heating and increased insulation.

 

The project also gave some local residents a chance to obtain trades training and work experience.
