SCG Development Announce Closing on Henry T. Wing Phase I
38 Units for Seniors (62+) in Sandwich, MA
SCG Development Partners, LLC (SCGDP) in Tysons, Virginia and Stratford Capital Group, in conjunction with co-developers Choice Housing Opportunities for Intergenerational and Community Endeavors, Inc (CHOICE) are pleased to announce the closing of Henry T. Wing Phase I, located in Sandwich, Massachusetts.
The Property represents the acquisition and adaptive re-use of a former elementary school in Sandwich, MA, approximately 52 miles southeast of Boston. The school was decommissioned in 2015, after which it hosted various Town administrative offices and community groups. The closure of the school was precipitated by a smaller student population in the district compared to prior decades and substantial capital improvements needed to continue operating the structure as an educational facility. SCGDP and CHOICE won a competitive Town RFP process in 2020 to secure the rights to transform the school into affordable housing.
The Property will preserve a portion of the existing structure that was initially constructed in 1927. Later additions, which were built in the 1950s through the 1970s, will be demolished to enable the construction of new, three-story, wood-framed residential structure. It is anticipated that the 31-acre campus will host up to 128 mixed-income apartment units following the completion of the Property, Henry T. Wing Phase II, and Henry T. Wing Phase III.
Upon completion, the Property will provide 38 apartment units consisting of four studio, 33 one-bedroom, and one two-bedroom apartment units for senior (62+) occupancy. It will be served by two elevators connecting the existing and new aspects of the development. The Property will also feature a common area in the current auditorium that will host on-site supportive services and community space for local senior residents.
