Rental Opening in Wise Acres Co-Housing

Newly built attached one bedroom apartment rental adjacent to Wise Acres Community Community Website: http://wiseacrescommunity.com Rental has its own kitchen with a range oven, full sized fridge, walnut butcher block countertop, heat pump with ac/heat. A private bathroom with shower/tub, parking space and a nice sized closet. Outside storage space and pets can be discussed. The apartment is attached and self-contained, but we are seeking a community member housemate. Outside of our living spaces we hope to share our space, time and thoughts with you. When you have a birthday it’s not if we will make you a cake, but what flavor and when. About the Community Wise Acres Community has been established for over 30 years with several founding members still active, present and involved. Additionally, recent years have brought an exciting influx of new families. Community members participate in shared meals twice a week- with cooking done on a rotation and all diets honored. There are lots of additional opportunities to gather- things like Friday night fire circles, book clubs, women’s and men’s circles and garden parties. All member incomes are independent. Community Participation If you show up to the community and don’t make an effort to show up to the gatherings you may as well live alone. Being a part of the community is not given by your physical presence alone. Each member has community responsibilities such as cleaning the common space or maintaining the facilities. You will have a contact within the community to help you get established. And lack of community participation can be grounds for rental termination. Work Opportunities Main housemate and several neighbors work remotely, while several drive in town. Closest towns are Kingston and Poulsbo. Some neighbors commute to Seattle a few days a week via ferry. Your Housemates We love to garden, and we

We are currently 3 adults and one baby living in a 6 bedroom, 3 bath house on ¼ acre of land near Powell Butte nature park and the Springwater Corridor bike trail. For us, living in community is a collaborative process, one that helps improve our quality of life. We’re able to eat great food, keep the place clean, maintain a garden, and hold a space large enough to host guests and events by working together. We have an extensive community library and art/craft material collection, as well as a great tea selection, stocked pantry, and functional kitchens ready for feast-making, canning, and fermentation dreams. We make kombucha, ginger beer, sauerkraut, bone broth, natto, and apple/pear butter on a rotating basis. With two fridges and two deep freezers we can save blueberries and blackberries we harvested from close by and get meat directly from farmers. We hold potlucks and other events like bonfires and game nights about once a month, and make a house dinner together weekly. We maintain a home free from artificial fragrances and voice-activated technology. The large downstairs room is available for $740 per month. It is next to the back door with zero steps to entry. We have another room upstairs that is available for $700 per month for one person or $800 for a parent and child. Guest space is available for friends and relatives of residents – upstairs there is an office/guest room for longer visits, and the couches/pads in the common areas are available for shorter stays. The home has heating and cooling through an efficient heat pump, and we just upgraded to a tankless water heater. Utilities usually run around $100 per month. We also share expenses for groceries and cleaning supplies, you’ll receive reimbursement for groceries if you go shopping often, or contribute typically $50-75 per month if you don’t go shopp
