Village Hearth in Durham, NC expects our prices will run from $185,000 
for a one bedroom/one bath unit to $300,000 for 2 bedrooms/2 baths 
(according to our consultant). We have land and are recruiting members 
with the hope of starting our design workshops soon. We are planning 28 
units clustered on 15 acres of land.
