Be part of a lifestyle where neighbors are neighborly, children play safely, and adults are involved in creating and maintaining a vital community presence. We enjoy shared dinners, social events, work parties, community meetings, and chats with neighbors on our cobblestone path. While architecture and community culture encourage a high degree of interaction, members can create their own balance of community and privacy. Browse our website for more details. First time on the market, this attractive starter home is in move-in condition. Freshly painted with new flooring throughout, its sunny floor plan allows for maximum flexibility. The back porch opens onto a large, beautifully landscaped lawn area. The two bedrooms are separated by a well-appointed bath and walk-in closet. Because of its environmentally sensitive building design, it is easy to keep cool in summer and warm in winter. |

Dear Interested Buyer,
When you consider buying this home, you are actually buying more than a home; you are buying participation in a vital community. We want our new residents to be delighted to become part of our neighborhood! For this reason we encourage you to attend community meetings, shared dinners, potlucks, and social events. Ask as many questions and meet as many folks as possible.
In the interest of full disclosure, I am not the owner. She lives in another state and has asked me, a community member, to represent her in communicating with interested buyers.
I look forward to hearing from you!
