Habitat for Humanity Affordable Housing Project

Project Overview

Habitat for Humanity Seattle-King Kittitas County (Habitat SKKC) is developing the Miller’s Creek Community in Burien. When completed, this project will offer 40 hard-working local families earning low incomes the long-term financial stability, independence, and equity-building that affordable homeownership provides. 

The project will feature both 3 and 4-bedroom, 1.5 bath homes that are approximately 1,250 square feet. Two units will be accessible for people with disabilities and will include access ramps and parking. A playground will also be incorporated into the neighborhood, which is within walking distance to schools, shops, and services.

As with all new home projects developed by Habitat SKKC in King County, this community will offer families making less than 80% of the Area Median Income (AMI) affordable homes with mortgages set at no more than 35% of their incomes. The property will be placed in a Land Trust ensuring permanent affordability for future generations.

On October 19, 2020, the Burien City Council approved the selection of Habitat for Humanity development as part of the Affordable Housing Demonstration Program, which was key to making this project possible.

As of early 2026, construction continues to move forward on the project. Applications for the homes opened in 2025.
