Available Units: 308 & 311

Unit #308

Unit 308, a three-bedroom, 1411 square foot unit along the south side of the main building is for sale at Trillium Hollow; asking price $420,000. Tranquility, comfort and natural light are key features of this condominium.  The downstairs contains the kitchen, dining area, bathroom with shower and the living room and open small bedroom/den which both have large windows opening out to the wooded back slope.  A 16’ x 6’ wood deck is perched in the middle of the back slope canopy.  The upstairs has a large bedroom with views open to the courtyard and back slope, a small bedroom facing the back slope and a bathroom with tub/shower. Beautiful hardwood floors are in all areas, except for the den and bathrooms.  Radiant floor heating keeps the unit comfortable during the cool months; abundant shade from the north slope keeps the unit cool in the summer.  Two tubular skylights naturally light the upstairs hall; very large windows give natural light to all the rooms.  When colorful autumn leaves yield to winter, they drop and allow abundant sunshine into the living spaces through the south-facing windows.  

Living in cohousing is as much a part of the living experience as the unit itself. Twenty-nine units of singles, families and couples make up the TH community.  Governance is participatory and generally by consensus.  Diversity, community, and ecological stewardship are important guiding values of the community.  Residents are expected to participate on community teams (such as, Legal/Financial, Repair & Maintenance, Landscape, Building and Grounds, Outreach, Community Enrichment, Parents/Teens/Children), contribute five hours of their skills per month (whether through monthly work parties or on their own time) and attend resident meetings the first Saturday of the month.

Unit #311
This unit is 1142 sq ft, with 2 BR & 2BA, on the top floor, reached by stairs or elevator. With windows in all four directions, mostly west and north, and one venting skylight, it feels like it’s up in the trees. The primary bedroom even has a separate entrance. The private exterior deck faces NW, and looks out into the forest and down on the central plaza. 

Expected rental cost will be $1900/mo. plus monthly dues that include all utilities and more.

Owner is moving into a smaller, first-floor studio unit. My intention is to rent it furnished or semi-furnished - we can work out those details. Duration of lease will be 6 months to 1 year, with possible chance of renewal.  After a year, a sale may also be possible, if tenants enjoy this style of cooperative living.  Renting before purchasing a unit provides an invaluable chance to learn about cohousing and this community.

Interior photos should soon be available, and this ad will be updated when everything is ready to go. Owner expects potential renters to visit and experience this community before applying, please.

Trillium has 29 units, from studios to 4-bedrooms, about 47 people currently, and a beautiful property of almost 4 acres.
