There is a rec room and workout space in the basement with gym equipment (weights, stairmaster, treadmill, rowing machine), an entire craft and floral workshop, sewing machine, and too many crafting options to list. Also a tool workshop, and lawn games, deck furniture, etc.
The house is full of beautiful windows and light. Opportunities for watching wildlife are endless, and there are hummingbird and regular bird feeders on the deck as well.

Suite two, with exclusive rights to the walkout basement bedroom suite and patio area at 30% ownership.

Our weather is a little more snowy than Fort Collins at 8000′ elevation, but cool in summer, and we still have 50+ degree days about half the time even during Dec, Jan and Feb (the coldest months).
The current resident in Suite 3 is a 54 yr old semi-retired scientist/author/gardener. My current work involves social advocacy and policy surrounding mental health, CMC consulting in Biotechnology, and working on my blog which includes subjects such including science, psychology, natural and alternative medicine, mindfulness & spirituality.
Looking for cohousing members who are interested in permaculture, sustainability, intentional community, mindfulness and mind-body health.
There are horses on the property, and interaction with horses is encouraged. Can ride from property to just about all trails in Roosevelt NF.
Current resident loves scrabble, risk, cards, crafts, music, hiking, photography, gardening (did I mention gardens?), outdoor live music venues, Fort Collins and the entire Colorado culture and much much more!
With the suites arranged on separate floors, there is adequate space for personal space and private time. But some communal time should be anticipated as well.
There is high speed internet suitable for remote work and you’ll often catch me working outside on my computer on the deck in summer.
Looking to build a sustainable small homestead with like-minded folks who are into permaculture, sustainability, building beauty, intentional community, mindfulness/meditation, and mind-body health.
