Looking for a fabulous human to share a unique home in a vibrant, avocado-filled cohousing community!

The Home:
The Palace of Joy is a warm, welcoming 4-bedroom, 2-bath home located in Tierra Nuevaβ€”a collaborative cohousing community nestled in an avocado orchard. The plan is to share the home with three awesome humans (including you!) and one sweet dog named Lucky.

The Room:

  • Private bedroom (upstairs, south-facing)
  • Approx. 20β€² x 12β€² with cork flooring, multiple windows, and a large closet
  • Unfurnished, but if you act quickly, you may be able to purchase the existing furniture from my current roommate
  • Shared bathroom with one other upstairs resident
  • Access to an additional bathroom downstairs

Rent & Details:

  • $1,200/month, includes gas, internet, electricity, water, and garbage
  • Optional reserved carport for $100/month
  • Month-to-month lease beginning June 1
  • Security deposit: $500
  • First and last month’s rent due at move-in

You’ll also enjoy shared access to:

  • Kitchen, living room, and patio
  • All Tierra Nueva common facilities, including:
    • Common House with reservable guest rooms
    • Community kitchen and dining room
    • Library, media room, and art/yoga/dance studio
    • Playground, veggie garden, and workshop
    • Acres of green space and dozens of fruit trees (including avocados!)

About Us:
We’re friendly, down-to-earth folks who value community, cooperation, and good vibes. Lucky the dog is mellow and loves company, so pets will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Please note:

  • Yard is not fenced
  • Doors are often open, so any pet must be well-socialized, chill, and able to stay close to home.

Ideal Roommate:

  • Respectful, communicative, and easy to live with
  • Enthusiastic about cohousing life
  • Clean, responsible, and a good fit for shared living
  • Introverts and extroverts welcome!

To Apply (No Fee!):
No formal application or fee required.
Instead, please email a little bit about yourselfβ€”who you are, why you’re interested in the room, and how you think you’d fit into this household and possibly the Tierra Nueva community.

If it sounds like a match, we’ll reach out to arrange a get-together.

We’re excited to meet the next joyful soul to join the Palace of Joy!
