About Our Home
This attractive, affordable, and accessible three-bedroom home is designed for people of all ages, sizes, and abilities. The Iowa City Housing Authority (ICHA) with support from Mercy Hospital, Mike and Judy Cilek and others in the community presents a home that uses universal design construction techniques which will ensure a barrier-free home that can meet a wide range of individual and family needs now and into the future. It is offered for sale through the ICHA’s Affordable Dream Home Ownership Program to income-eligible Johnson County families. This home provides an opportunity for the community to learn about universal design, while demonstrating that accessibility is for all and need not increase cost or result in special, clinical, or unusual-looking buildings.
