Greenstead Grove in Ludlow is a new construction development that brings 43 affordable residences to a suburban setting that is both walkable and commutable. Sited on approximately 5 acres, the 7 two-story wood-framed townhomes and one community building are located in a neighborhood of single and multi-family homes; the site is also across the street from the town’s new (2023) elementary school, Harris Brook Elementary School. Greenstead Grove reflects Way Finders’ recent push to increase the supply of affordable housing in suburban areas, where there is high demand for—and very limited supply of—such housing.
Way Finders is working with General Contractor Allegrone Companies and Dietz & Company Architects on the townhouse-style apartments, which include one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments. Three apartments are fully accessible and three apartments will be equipped for those who have sensory (hearing/visual) impairments.
The site includes ample off-street parking. At a separate onsite one-story community building, the hub for Way Finders’ on-site property management and resident services, residents can do laundry and use the communal covered bike racks.
Residents of Greenstead Grove can access various local destinations—schools, a grocery store, retail shops, cultural organizations—by foot or bicycle. They will also find it easy to connect to major roadways and the breadth of employment opportunities that they lead to.
Construction of Greenstead Grove started in spring 2024 and is expected to conclude in 2025.
