Check out the new eco-friendly community in North Fresno. Four years in development, a half-dozen founding families worked with architects to create a project that combines private townhomes with extensive common facilities. In order to live in a multi-generational environment that encourages co-operative living, they planned smaller living spaces (1,100 to 1900 sq ft) based on LEED standards. Common areas include a pool, children’s play areas, spa, gym, workshop, bike garage, guest quarters, common laundry and a kitchen / community dining hall where they share meals several times a week. They plan to grow a vegetable garden, too.

Homes are still available, but it’s worth a walk through, even if you aren’t in the market for a new home right now. We are planning to host Fresno Cohousing on the upcoming solar tour on April 18, 2009.
