Airport Acres Townhomes (Habitat for Humanity, Airport Road)
Habitat for Humanity of the New River Valley is building 11 permanently affordable townhomes at 200 Airport Road in the Airport Acres neighborhood, sold through the New River Home Trust to households earning 30 to 80 percent of area median income. The town awarded $1 million in ARPA funds, the state awarded $800,000 from the Virginia Housing Trust Fund, and Town Council waived $52,800 in water and sewer availability fees on August 12, 2025. As of September 2026, framing and roofing of the first building were complete, prices were about $250,000, and completion was expected in March 2027.
The project
The details.
Under the land trust model, buyers own the home while the land stays in the trust; Habitat says the trust keeps the land affordable for 99 years. Buyers complete volunteer hours. Homes are built to EarthCraft Gold standards. When construction plans were announced in October 2024, WDBJ reported a price of about $175,000 and hoped-for completion in June 2026; the September 2026 figures are newer.
