Our 11-room craftsman-style cooperative house has a Ground floor middle room available. This large 11'4 x 13'9 room on the main floor has curved 9' ceilings, a pair of east facing windows, plus a small south facing window. The room is pre-wired for a phone and shared DSL. It has a closet with shelves and a cloths rod, good sound insulation, and a complete shared bathroom. We are a stable household of 5 adults with one room becoming available. We are one very happy 5 2/3 year old girl, (3 women, 2 men, ages 32, 34, 48, 54, 66). Reasonably quiet house and a VERY pedestrian/bicycle friendly neighborhood. Reasonably quiet house and a VERY pedestrian/bicycle friendly neighborhood. Inside, our home offers a generous amount of common space throughout, a WAY organized kitchen, a comfy living room & spacious dining room, all with lots of sun. Our raised garden beds flourished with vegetables, berries and fruit trees. In the winter, we often light a fire in the wood-burning stove and keep our utility bill lower with our solar electric panels, solar water heater, and hydronic heater systems. We connect by eating two dinners per week together at about 7PM on Mon & Weds & share household chores including weekly grocery shopping, buying primarily organic food (including some fish & chicken). We make decisions at house meetings after diner every few weeks and have a monthly 3 hour work party. Please desire to live in a cooperative but independent community, be willing to share main food staples and participate in a cooking rotation. Please enjoy being around children. Ideally, you are socially & emotionally sensitive w/ GREAT communication skills, progressive & politically active, ecologically centered, arts & activist oriented.

The Price we pay for Freedom
The home
- The room for rent is medium-sized with plenty of built-in storage space and natural light. Rent is $465 per month (utilities average about $30/month per person), and move-in deposit (fully refundable) is $525. We share a kitchen and common space in a commercial storefront, and our living spaces are upstairs in more private settings., SOL (Sustaining Ourselves Locally)
The project
- The focal point of our project is a 5,000 square foot lot that we have transformed into a productive garden for ourselves as well as for educational programs and community workshops in sustainable living practices (e.g. food justice, nutrition, composting, grey-water treatment etc.)., SOL (Sustaining Ourselves Locally)
Themes
- Honesty, understanding, and dynamic harmony. Mutual support and inspiration in spiritual exploration and practice., Nascent_House

What we look for and offer
- Because we are both a home and a project, a room in this space asks a greater commitment of time and effort than many other households, but comes with the returns of being part of an incredible space to live, a beautiful organic garden, the chance to create projects galore, and an urban community involved in, inspired by, and learning about environmentally and socially conscious living., SOL (Sustaining Ourselves Locally)
