Cohousing-L Mailing List: Cohousing Available in Tucson

[Natalie Hill (natalie]

Make your home at Milagro -- A community in balance with nature . . .

The members of Milagro Cohousing in Tucson, Arizona, are creating a
people- and earth-friendly community dedicated to cohousing and
ecological principles.  We own a magnificent 43-acre parcel in a
residential neighborhood near the Tucson mountains -- just 15 minutes
northwest of downtown Tucson -- and our development will leave 3/4 of it
in its natural state.  We're building a total of 28 townhomes.  We
expect our first residents to be moving in by the end of this year and
everyone to be in by next spring.

We have two units (#3 and #5) available for sale.  Visit our website at
http://www.milagrocohousing.org for more information and to view our
site and home plans.

Unit 3 (1481 sq. ft., including the casita) is an "A2" model with two
bedrooms and a bathroom downstairs; an unfinished loft upstairs; and a
336 sq. ft. detached casita (guest house) in the back yard with a full
bathroom, bedroom, and walk-in closet. Asking price is approximately
$257,000.

Unit 5 (1837 sq. ft., including the casita) is an "A3" model with two
bedrooms and a bathroom downstairs; a bedroom, bathroom, and walk-in
closet upstairs; and a 336 sq. ft. detached casita (guest house) in the
back yard with a full bathroom, bedroom, and walk-in closet.  Asking
price is approximately $296,000.

Our homes are designed for maximum energy efficiency.  Features include
16" adobe block thermal mass construction, passive solar hot water
heaters, metal roofs, optional cisterns for rainwater capture, and
wastewater recycling via an underground wetlands system which will be
used to irrigate our orchard and the plantings in our pedestrian way.

We'll have a children's playroom, a library, and a laundry room in our
common house, and a swimming pool just behind it.
