Habitat for Humanity Implements the Latest Building Trend

Their New Cotton Groves Community

Habitat for Humanity is excited to be utilizing the newest building trend in residential housing, storage container homes.

The new community, The Cotton Groves, located off Bumpus street in East McKinney, will feature thirty-five, 3-4 bedroom single-family homes when completed late summer 2020.

Each home will feature 1280 square feet of living space and a second-floor balcony that also serves as a carport for the ground floor. A choice of three different exterior finishes will be offered. Sixty percent of the home will still retain the original metal appearance.

Funds are still needed to complete the planned amenity center, computer lab, playground, and townhomes. Habitat is actively looking for financial partners to help with this amazing project.
