Where will it be built?

Home Sponsors can participate in the home’s construction either at the Settled Design Center at Woodland Hills Church in Maplewood, MN, or at a location of their choosing. Builds located at a place other than our Design Center work great, they will just require coordination between Settled and the Home Sponsor.
