Mt. Jezreel Celebrates Grand Opening and Ribbon Cutting

Silver Spring, MD

The Harkins team attended the ribbon cutting of The Sanctuary, a Mt. Jezreel Senior Housing project on Saturday, September 8, 2018 in Silver Spring, MD.

Located behind the fully operational Mt. Jezreel Baptist Church, The Sanctuary offers 75-unit mixed income senior living units with 12 units set aside for veterans. The three-story wood frame building features brick veneer and Hardie cementitious lap siding, an asphalt shingle roof with red standing seam metal details, scored concrete patios and sidewalks, landscaping, and planters.

The apartment mix is made up of 56 one-bedroom and 19 two-bedroom units at rents ranging from 40% to 60% of the Area Median Income. The units include Energy Star-certified kitchen appliances, high-efficiency lighting, individually controlled HVAC systems, carpeted floors, vinyl flooring, vinyl windows, metal clad two-panel doors, chrome finishes, shaker style cabinets, laminate countertops in the kitchens, and cultured marble vanity tops in the bathrooms.

Amenity spaces for residents include a cyber café, a library, a grandchildren’s room, a fitness room, a wellness suite, a community room, and laundry rooms on each floor.

This is Harkins’ first project with the owner, Mission First.
