The keys of the brand new, two-level home on Flora Avenue were handed over to owners Craig and Leanne Beaulieu.
The Beaulieus, along with their four children, have been driving past their home-to-be for over a year. With the keys in their possession, they are both first-time homeowners.
“First-time homeowners” is a phrase Craig Beaulieu is still getting used to.
“I can’t really explain it, I’m so grateful for this,” Craig said. “It’s been a long time coming. With Habitat I had a goal to own a home, and within five to 10 years they sped this up so much,.”

Craig and Leanne also played a huge role in building the home, putting in 500 hours of work between the two of them.
They plan to move in this Friday, just in time for Christmas.
