Affordable Housing Groundbreaking in Sonoma

Celestina Garden Apartments starts construction in Sonoma

The ESE team is excited to work with MidPen Housing on the second portion of this Sonoma Affordable Housing project adjacent to the Fetters Apartments.

On October 19th Sonoma County Supervisor Susan Gorin joined other county leaders to celebrate the groundbreaking of Celestina Garden Apartments, an affordable rental community being developed by MidPen Housing.

Located in the heart of the Sonoma Valley wine region, Celestina Garden represents the final phase of a master-planned, intergenerational community where people of all ages can live, work, attend school, shop, and have easy access to transportation, and enjoy many community amenities. Fetters Apartments, which opened in late 2017 and was also developed by MidPen, provides affordable apartment homes for families on an adjacent site. The event highlights the value of state Propositions 1 & 2 and City of Santa Rosa’s Measure N which, if passed in November, will create more communities like Fetters and Celestina Garden for Sonoma County’s working families, children, veterans, seniors, and people with special needs.

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) offer flexible housing solutions, are becoming increasingly popular, and more government agencies are looking for creative ways to simplify construction permits.

With the recent California law, AB1033, this enables homeowners to sell ADUs independently, which in turn enhances financial flexibility for the homeowner and increases the housing supply.
