Located just blocks from the beach in the highly desirable retro row area, we are excited to foster an environment that strives towards progressive values such as sustainability, justice reform, art, and environmental awareness. We just recently acquired this location and are currently seeking individuals who want to be a part of our house.

We consider ourselves a community, not just roommates. For the past 4 years this has included weekly meals together, house meetings every other week to be able to make decisions together, shared activities and work projects, and getting involved in the neighborhood. Other ideals we strive toward: Direct communication and active conflict resolution, nonviolent communication Outings, activities and hosting gatherings, parties, etc. as a house Organized chore rotation Lots of plants, “green”-mindedness, recycling, composting, etc. We value diversity, want to be involved in our neighborhood and social justice organizations, foster creativity, and the community Queer- and poly-friendly We are respectful of ethical and other dietary restrictions, but some of us are omnivores, so we wouldn’t have a strictly vegetarian or vegan house All in all, we want some structure, but we don’t want it to be overbearing. We want to build community, share experiences, have fun, and enrich our lives and the lives of those we share community with. Please reach out if you’re looking for something similar!
