Originally a 1928 farm cottage, this home has been expanded and re invented as an urban homestead. Permaculture and food security are priorities here. There is a food forest underway. Gardeners, renewable energy advocates and activists welcome. This listing is not for everyone. it's very unique. For the right person it will be perfect. The house is divided into two wings. Each one has a full private bathroom but they share a spacious kitchen. Livingroom. Laundry room.... And a huge garden with an established and aspiring food forest. There's an irrigation canal off of lithia Creek that makes this property a gardeners delight. Rich loamy soil with ample sun and a huge yard on this 1/3 acre lot. The home is modest and in good repair. It is ready for the next residents to nest and make it thier own. It has 2 mini split heat pump and a high efficiency catalytics wood stove for heat. This home also has great passive solar potential. I've long dreamt of adding a greenhouse to the south to help it heat passively like an Earthship. Interested renters would be welcome to negotiate rent trade proposals for making permanent permitted improvements to the property. Contact me for details. Get in contact for a conversation to schedule a showing. Generic "id like to schedule a tour" messages will be mostly ignored. This is not for everyone. If you are just looking for housing and aren't inspired to contribute something of substance to make this home and our community a better place it's likely not a good fit. Good luck in your search, and do reach out if you might be the special someone that this home needs to embody its mission. This home is a climate change, food and energy security life raft. Please let me know: Why would you like to participate? Wifi and all utilities can be included with rent for an additional $350. Otherwise renters will pay 100% of all utilities. The home is all electric. No natural gas service is available. I will provide a Home biogas digester to anyone who wants to compost and digest methane in a closed loop system for cooking. I'm an advocate of built in Cob adobe and Solar ovens too. Solar industry professionals welcomed. I'd love to cover the new metal roof with solar panels this year. Hard wired fiber internet is available on site. Lithia Creek irrigation water flows freely through a canal in the back yard in the spring summer and fall. Passive solar designers, permaculture designers and activists get first preference. Thanks for being radical! This homestead can be divided into two independent units at $1500 each. some creative fundraising may be required for solar panels and the huge earthship inspired sunroom additions.
