The city of Sandusky is working to revitalize vacant lots by building affordable homes for first-time buyers, addressing a need for more attainable housing options in an area primarily known for tourism.
The city of Sandusky is eager to revitalize vacant lots around the area, building affordable homes for first-time home buyers in an area more known for drawing visitors than permanent residents.“When I bought my home several years ago, it was tough finding something,” said Project Manager Brian Reidy.Now, Reidy is making it his mission to help others find their new home.
The new energy-efficient homes will range from 1,250 to 1,350 square feet and are priced in the mid $200,000 range. They will be minutes away from Cedar Point Sports Center and Sports Force Parks. The homes will be on East Old Gate Street, Fallen Timer Drive and Heritage Drive. “When people would find the few areas that did offer new construction, it was a completely different price point that many weren't able to consider.
