Co-housing Unit For Sale in Portland Oregon

Offer

Description

Light-filled 976 sq ft, 3-bedroom, 1-bath end unit in Columbia Ecovillage, Portland’s
established cohousing community in the Cully neighborhood. With windows on
three sides, this ground-floor home gets natural light all day, even on
Portland’s grey ones.

The open living and dining area has warm hardwood floors and flows into a
kitchen with solid wood cabinets and granite counters. The dining room
windows look straight into a native vine maple — a wall of green from spring
through fall. There’s good storage
in the unit, plus an extra storage space in the community storage building.
A ductless mini-split provides efficient heating and air conditioning, and
the plumbing was fully replaced in 2026.

The primary bedroom has a full-width closet behind a sliding barn door; the
second bedroom’s closet sits behind a pair of French doors. The third
bedroom has no closet, which makes it a flexible room — guest room, office,
or playroom.

Step out the sliding glass door onto your own covered patio, which opens onto the community grounds: organic gardens, personal garden plots,
greenhouses, a grape arbor, a bamboo grove, native plantings throughout, and
trees everywhere — including a truly massive old black walnut. The orchard alone is a reason to live here — to name a few:
apples, pears, plums, figs, mulberries, chestnuts, walnuts, grapes,
blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries, in several varieties each. A
75,000-gallon rainwater catchment system keeps it all watered through the
summer. Kids have a playhouse, sandbox, small soccer field, a favorite climbing
tree, and a parking loop where bikes can circle but cars can’t; adults have
a workshop, garden shed, fire pit, quiet space and big community porches.

The common hall is the heart of the village: a commercial kitchen any
resident can use, a kids’ play area, pool table and ping pong, and a
soapstone stove that burns every winter evening. Residents can reserve it for
events for almost nothing. The historic farmhouse has guest rooms owners can
book for visiting family (about 30 nights a year). Shared laundry rooms
(three washers and dryers) come with indoor drying racks and outdoor
clotheslines, and there’s a craft room and a trade room where things you no
longer need find a new home next door. Potlucks, community
meals, work parties, and acres of safe space for kids to roam make
this a rare chance to own a home and a neighborhood at the same time.

Built in 1973 and fully remodeled in 2008–09 for energy efficiency and healthy indoor air — metal roof, HardiePlank siding, and standard community-built finishes throughout. Nothing to update, nothing deferred. The $522 monthly HOA covers
water, sewer, and garbage, plus the roof, siding, exterior paint, and all
structural maintenance — and it’s what pays for the grounds, the common hall,
and everything else described above. And it’s close in: Cully’s cafés and
parks are a short walk or bike ride away, the rest of Portland’s food,
music, and neighborhoods are minutes beyond that, and the commute downtown
or to the airport is easy by car, bus, or bike

– 3.7-acre grounds with organic gardens, personal plots, greenhouses, native plantings, and mature trees (huge black walnut)
– Orchard: apples, pears, plums, figs, mulberries, chestnuts, walnuts, grapes, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries
– 75,000-gallon rainwater catchment feeds the gardens year-round
– Workshop, garden shed, fire pit, quiet space, community porches

Restoring Choice - free online practice group, from Australia

Restoring Choice – free sessions and a practice group Many of us are less practised at three things than we realise: making clear requests, saying no when it isn’t a full yes, and hearing no without something getting damaged. These aren’t personality traits. They’re capacities that were trained out of many of us by ordinary structures – families where some needs were allowed and others weren’t, workplaces that reward overstretch. They can be trained back. Why this might interest people here Most communities teach communication after people arrive, once conflict has already surfaced. This works the other way round – building capacity first, and finding out what a group can do when most people already have it. What’s running Free 60-minute introduction, online. Same session each time; come to whichever suits. Register for intro session below: https://events.humanitix.com/reclaim-your-power-with-restoring-choice Four-week practice group, Tuesdays from 15 September, 6:30-8:00pm. One session a week, and at least one short written entry a day about a real situation in your own life. The writing is the actual work; the sessions support it. Sign up by Sunday 13 September. Register for practice group below: https://events.humanitix.com/restoring-choice-practice-group Everything is free. Times are Australian Eastern 6:30pm here is the early hours in most of the Americas. Worth checking before you register. Who it’s for No prior experience needed. It isn’t therapy, and I’m not a therapist. Many people find that looking honestly at how well they ask, decline, or hear a no is less flattering than expected. That’s common, and it isn’t a verdict on anyone. Run by Glenn Russo – 13 years practising this material, seven years co-facilitating an NVC practice group in Castlemaine. If you’re already living in community and would rather share what you’ve learned than join anything, I’d like to hear from you too.

Cohousing ABQ: Life is better together. We're moving in during 2026. Last homes available!

We’ve broken ground on a multigenerational cohousing community along the Rio Grande River in Albuquerque, NM! Our community features 25 beautiful, energy-efficient homes clustered around a shared open space, with a fully equipped common house and a range of community amenities. A few last homes are still available — please refer to our website for up-to-date availability. These homes will be move-in ready in the summer/fall of 2026. Or you might be interested in our Wait Pool for unit sizes no longer available. Click here to watch a video of our cohousing community: https://cohousingabq.org/video Our land is on a quiet road with lots of families and kids. The neighborhood’s agricultural roots give it a rural feel, but the center of town is just a 3-minute drive away. Our community plans include play areas for kids, a shared farming area, a year-round greenhouse, an orchard, a workshop and electric vehicle charging. We are diverse in age, background and identity, representing a mix of families with children, couples and singles. We range in age from 2 to 82, and there are 13 kids in our community so far. We have created a fun, caring culture among our group, regularly getting together for meals, camping trips and play dates by the river, in addition to collaborating on our community plans and supporting one another through life’s ups and downs. In Albuquerque, there’s lots to keep us busy, from museums and galleries to nationally recognized wineries and breweries. With 310 sunny days per year, you can often find us outside—hiking, biking or skiing, or exploring the mountains, parks and historic sites all around the region. The Rio Grande that flows through the city center is a playground for kayakers, and miles of walking and cycling trails wind through its wooded banks. Reach out to us or join an upcoming Meet & Greet to learn more about becoming a part of our community! Email: neig

Looking for: people building relational capacity, with a view to community

What’s here now: An intention, a framework developed over five years, and a programme running in central Victoria to find people to build with. No land, no group, no timeline. The question this is organised around: What makes a community of people living together sustainable over decades – where people enjoy being there, conflict is low, and the conflict that does arise gets handled in ways people value. The distinctive premise is capacity before formation. Most communities form first and build relational skill afterwards, usually under pressure. This one proposes doing it the other way round: people build the capacities first, and the group forms from people who have them. That includes a working idea about collective capacity – that a group has a ratio, and below some threshold it can’t metabolise its own conflict and starts consuming itself. Roughly: in a group of twenty, perhaps three or four with high capacity, most in the middle, and very few without. Untested, and something this project exists to find out. Governance: Sociocracy, with the intention of testing it meaningfully at scale rather than adopting it nominally. What’s actually happening: A three-week residency at a property near Castlemaine, and a practice group running before it. The medium-term aim is twenty to forty people at a rented facility. The long-term aim is a support hub sharing the framework more widely. What I’m looking for: People who want to build this capacity seriously, and who might eventually want to build something together. Not necessarily people who want to live here – the current property probably isn’t the long-term site. Happy to hear from anyone this resonates with, including people already in community who’d rather share what they’ve learned than join anything.
