About Our Homes
All 26 private homes are designed for aging in place and are either one- or two-bedroom homes with a single floor design.
Common Space
The Common House will be located in the renovated 1990s house on site. This will be the heart of the community, with a large kitchen to prepare group meals, a dining area, and multi-purpose rooms for gatherings. Additional shared common space will be available in our adjacent post and beam barn. We are planning and starting gardens near these two buildings and all around the greenspace.
The grounds have walking paths between homes, nooks for sitting and visiting with friends, and new shade trees and plantings. Most units have either small porches, terraces, or balconies. Carports and outdoor parking spaces are located on the periphery so that we can safely be free range neighbors!
