Listings below may have particular requirements, but generally we encourage these three steps to apply | 1. Read webpages | Welcome!, Vision Statement, Are We a Match? |
2. Make two visits | Contact the listing person to make visits. One to tour the house and community, and another to see what community life is like at a potluck, garden work day, or board meeting. | |
3. Review documents | Governing Docs (CC&Rs, Bylaws, etc.) and request a rental application if needed. |

Furnished House for Rent
My furnished 3-bedroom, 2.5 bath, 2,400 sq ft, hand-crafted, light-clay straw-bale house is available for rent from August 1 – Oct 31. The house is located right next to the pond in the heart of the Higher Ground Co-Housing Community and is very convenient to St Charles Hospital.
The first floor has an open floor plan with a comfy window seat and piano in the living room, an 8-seat live edge reclaimed redwood dining room table in the dining room, a half-bath and a kitchen that allows residents to enjoy a view of the pond while washing dishes or preparing food.
The primary suite has been newly remodeled including a bedroom with skylights and a stylish bathroom with a steam shower and double sinks. In addition, there is one large bedroom (15ft X 14ft) and 1 small (18 ft X 8 ft) bedroom, which share the second upstairs bathroom.
There are two patios to enjoy the pond, one with a 4-seat table and the other with a 5-piece furniture set and several flowers and plants to enjoy. Two off street parking spaces are available.
Temperature in the house is easily regulated with AC upstairs and passive solar design along with straw bale insulation on the first floor.
Residents will need to care for indoor and outdoor plants which are watered on an automated system.
Residents will quickly meet and get to know their neighbors by optionally participating in weekly potlucks at the community house, weekly garden parties, and holiday parties. There are two meadows, a hot tub, sauna and a playground accessible in the community.
Absolutely no pets and no smoking
