Common House

Our 3800 square-foot Common House is attached to the atrium, intentionally located in the center of our neighborhood.  It includes a large kitchen and dining area, a living room with library, a kids’ area, a multipurpose room, two guest rooms, and a laundry room.   We have optional shared dinners about once week.

The Common House is the heart of the community — where we share some (optional) meals, relax, and meet in groups of all sizes for coffee klatches, games, knitting or book groups, slide shows, movies, music nights, parties, dancing, etc.  There’s often a puzzle in the works on an out-of-the-way table.

When the weather is good, we eat outdoors on the patio, with pop-up tents to protect from sun or rain.

Below is a photo from a holiday meal to which we invited friends or family from outside the neighborhood. It’s not usually so crowded, but when needed, we can seat a lot of people.

Living room, just off of the dining area, has doors to make it quiet when needed:

Using the Common House laundry room is optional; all units come with hook-ups for washers and dryers.

The Common House is available for residents to use at all times, unless a resident has reserved the kitchen / dining / living room for a private event.
