In the fast-developing area of
Fredericksburg, Virginia, affordable housing has a new address. In this booming
market, where reasonably priced housing is so hard to come by, Orchard Ridge at
Jackson Village offers 169 new apartments, and a second phase of construction
will bring the total to 245. Here, teachers, hospital workers, firefighters,
police and others can find one-, two- and even three-bedroom apartments that
fit their budgets and provide a comfortable lifestyle.
All 169 units must be rented to individuals
or families with $70,320 or less in annual income. There are several models to
choose from; all feature 9-foot ceilings, open floorplans, upgraded flooring,
oversized windows, designer kitchens and baths and a full-size washer and
dryer. Community amenities include controlled entry access, lobbies with
designer furnishings, bike storage, a dog park area, 24-hour fitness center,
clubhouse, pool and a picnic/grilling area. The community is near schools,
shopping, dining and healthcare, with easy access to both Washington, D.C. and
Richmond via I-95 and commuter rail.
“We’re excited to be part of this
community,” said L. Scott Armiger, President of Orchard Development
Corporation. “Our group develops affordable housing and when we looked at the
site and the Fredericksburg market, it looked like the right fit.” This is the
fifth time Orchard Development Corporation and VHDA have teamed up on a
project.
