Habitat EKC Current Construction Projects

Koinonia Ridge, Snoqualmie
2002 to present

Just North of I-90 on Snoqualmie Parkway, Habitat for Humanity EKC has undertaken the largest Habitat development in the Northwest region. Weyerhaeuser Real Estate Company in participation with the City of Snoqualmie has offered 10 acres of partially developed land for the construction of 50 single family homes. These homes will be incorporated into the overall design of the 4,000 plus homes being developed in Snoqualmie by five other major builders.

Thirty single family Habitat homes have been completed in Snoqualmie with others currently under construction. We have also built our first Community Center in Snoqualmie which will eventually serve the 50 families living in this Habitat community. The Community Center is adjacent to the new park and is a wonderful addition to the neighborhood. Featuring a small kitchen and large meeting room, it functions as a central meeting place and rental facility for large parties and activities for the community.

In 2004, we partnered with Lumbermens to complete our first of many Green builds at Snoqualmie Ridge. The home was certified at a 3 star build green rating by Master Builders Association.  BUILT GREEN homes are designed to provide homeowners with comfortable, durable, environmentally friendly homes that are cost-effective to own and operate.  These resource-efficient homes are crafted to exceed building codes and provide homeowners with years of healthy, quality living, while protecting the precious Northwest environment.

Issaquah Highlands, Issaquah
2009 to present

Located on ½ an acre of land in the beautiful Issaquah Highlands development, this project will consist of 10 homes in 5 duplexes. The two story houses will consist of 2, 3 and 4 bedrooms all with built-in garages. The homes will range from 1000 to 1400 square feet.

Land for this project was acquired with generous support from ARCH-A Regional Coalition for Housing, the City of Issaquah, the City of Newcastle, the City of Sammamish, King County Housing Finance Program, the State of Washington Housing Trust Fund and HUD Self Help Homeownership Program.

The homes will be built in accordance with the Master Builder’s Association of King & Snohomish County Built Green Certified and Evergreen Sustainable Standard programs.

Issaquah Highlands is a new model of how to live in the Northwest, combining access to woods, trails, open space and parks with an urban-village lifestyle of convenience. Issaquah Highlands is pedestrian friendly with a network of sidewalks and trails, making it easy to walk or bike from place to place. Architecture and streetscapes are scaled for walking, with something interesting to look at and experience each step of the way.

Many neighborhoods have front porches and homes close to the sidewalk to encourage social interaction. In the Issaquah Highlands there are 650 developed acres of land, 1400 open acres of open space with an additional 100 acres of parks area (accounting for 15 individual parks.)
