Availability of places to build a home in Iuka has long been an issue, but a new subdivision has opened up offering affordable lots in the city for families to build their dream home.
Originally designed and developed by Larry Bonds, Deer Park subdivision has space for about 30 homes, and is just off Constitution Drive in Iuka. It’s far enough from the business district to qualify as a quiet neighborhood; but conveniently just minutes to schools, shopping, and restaurants.
City utilities already run to the 28 lots that range in size from half to one-and-a-half acre homesites, including city water, wastewater, and power. The roads are paved, with curbs, and there are only two completed homes in the neighborhood, so choice lots are still available. The land has been cleared, and graded – ready to build homes on.
Recently acquired by Joiner and Raynard Construction, LLC, the company had planned to build single-family homes to help meet the need for affordable homes in Iuka. With companies announcing hundreds of new jobs coming in, they sought to meet that need, but have changed their construction focus to complete two hotels they are renovating in Iuka, deciding to open up Deer Park to private home builders to build their own homes.
“It’s a beautiful, quiet neighborhood close to town, a great place to build a home and raise a family,” said developer Julien Raynard. “We look forward to seeing it grow as a neighborhood, bringing other families to the Iuka area we have come to love.”
