HEARTWOOD COHOUSING - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What makes us different from traditional cohousing?
In truth, our vision of community is very consistent with "traditional" cohousing. We do differ in a few areas. We have a strong commitment to build and live in an environmentally responsible community. We are located in a rural setting rather than an urban or suburban one. We employed the Mixed Development Model, which means that we have a mix of 14 production built homes (more economical) and 10 custom built homes (more design freedom). In either case, everyone owns a share of the common facilities and open space.
