Restoration Housing’s sixth affordable housing project will be 930 Stewart Avenue, a circa 1903 home located in the Belmont Historic District. While this property has been lovingly looked after by its previous owners, it has sat vacant for many years.
Renovation Plans
Project Overview
Needs a complete overhaul to restore or replace in-kind historic materials;
Incorporate modern interior systems and living amenities;
Slated for completion in Spring 2024, this will be a single-family rental opportunity for a low-income* family featuring new kitchens and bathrooms, in-unit laundry, and generous yard space.

To see these houses come back to life, it’s like turning on a light in a dark room, it brightens everything around it, and every project that Restoration Housing has done has had that kind of impact.
