The Opportunity

Whether you’ve always dreamed of community living, or have been living in a shared house for 5 years, we’d love to hear from folks who are excited at the prospect of having a hand in launching a new space! We specialize in coliving and we love working with early residents to gather together into a cohesive group, make decisions together, work together to share food and meals, and navigate the process of building bonds!

The Layout
This project consists of three stories, each of which is designed to be a self-contained community household. Each floor has a fully equipped chef’s kitchen, and open plan living space with ample dining and plenty of living space. Everyone has a private bedroom, and many beds have private baths. The first floor has eleven bedrooms, the second floor has twelve bedrooms, and the top floor has six lofted bedrooms.
Interior Design
Each of the three flats is being thoughtfully furnished- couches, rugs, art, plants, chairs, as well as a fully equipped kitchen down to coffee makers, plates, cups, pots and pans. We’re incorporating 8 years of experience in running (and living in!) coliving houses into the design selections in the home. Whether need to find a cozy nook to tuck away and read in, or you want to tell stories around the fireplace- we have all your at-home cozy needs covered.

The Location
Based in the Northeast Portland neighborhood of Rose City Park, the building is on Halsey St with some nearby restaurants, pubs and coffee within walking distance (the Barley Pod, a food truck court, is across the street!). It’s a 10 minute bike ride down to Mt. Tabor, and situated right off I-84, it’s quick to drive anywhere in town.
