Veterans’ home Freedom’s Path takes a step to Kerrville

KERRVILLE – Freedom’s Path, a housing complex for disabled veterans that was first proposed for construction more than three years ago, has cleared its final regulatory hurdle and is slated to break ground next week.

Communities for Veterans of Florida finalized its private financing in late December for the $10.5 million project.

Under its financing agreement with Bank of America it must secure a certificate of occupancy by Dec. 31 for the initial 49-unit, three-story complex that will serve veterans who earn up to 60 percent of the area’s median income.

If all goes well, a second complex of 49 units will be built beside the first one in the years to come.
