Cohousing-L Mailing List: RoseWind / Port Townsend WA resales!

[Lynn Nadeau (welcome]

Unexpectedly, a family who owned two of our few remaining unbuilt lots 
has decided to pursue other plans and resell these lots. In our 
thirteenth year, RoseWind Cohousing (Port Townsend Washington) has all 24 
home sites owned, and most of them built and occupied, so this is a 
double opportunity: 

To join us, which is only available through resales, which don't happen 
very often, and
To join a cohousing and also design your own home, choosing whatever size 
and quality and materials suit your taste, values, and budget. City and 
State building codes are the main requirements. 

Each lot is about 5000 square feet. 
Lot 12 is a really excellent piece of real estate, with a great location, 
view, and some elevation. It was chosen from all available lots by one of 
our three founders. The price (which includes the common-house and 
common-land purchase monies, as well as the cost of having put roads, 
sewer, power etc to the lot corners) is $47,500. This lot could 
comfortably fit a fair-sized house; in fact, 2 different sets of house 
plans are available if desired, from former owners who were going to 
build. 

Lot 16 is priced at $39,500. It has (friendly) homes fairly close on 
three sides, tall cedar trees nearby, and a view corridor to the central 
commons. It seems well suited to a compact two-story home, though what is 
built is up to the owner. 

The only other resale we have available is a fine custom house on lot 10, 
at $299,000.

Those of you who were at the Berkeley conference saw the model of our 
wonderful sunny common house, with photos of the colorful and creative 
touches throughout.

Port Townsend is a wonderful little liberal oasis on the Olympic 
Peninsula, with kayak and wooden-boat activities, lots of art, music, 
theater, dance, and public celebrations. Take a look at this especially 
if you are considering STARTING a cohousing: you can save yourself many 
years of work, especially if you want your young children to benefit (my 
once-4-year-old is now a senior in high school, having spent her 
childhood in planning meetings...)

Write me for more information.
