Cohousing-L Mailing List: Gorgeous Home for Sale at Heartwood Cohousing (Durango, CO) – Land, Community, and Connection

[Sandhya Atkinson (sandhya.atkinson]

Hello all,

We’re sharing our home for sale at Heartwood Cohousing, a multigenerational
community just outside Durango, Colorado.

This has been more than a home for us. Heartwood is a place where daily
life is shaped by connection, where neighbors show up for one another in
both small and meaningful ways, and where living in relationship with the
land is part of the rhythm of life. In a time when so much feels uncertain,
this kind of mutual support and groundedness has been a steadying force.

Heartwood sits on 360 acres of meadow, pine forest, and pastureland, with
over 7 miles of trails right out the door. With more than 300 days of
sunshine each year and close access to the San Juan Mountains and Colorado
Plateau, the landscape invites you to be outside, to slow down, and to stay
connected to something larger.
