Description:
This friendly cohousing neighborhood near Bremerton, Washington, offers quality reasonably-priced living an hour away from Seattle, by ferry. Meadow Wood is a quiet and safe, car free neighborhood, nestled in a gently sloping pasture, bordered by a creek, surrounded by tall trees and nature trails. Yet it is located on a bus line and is less than 10 minutes from the Bremerton and Silverdale urban centers. The layout of the site balances a desire for personal privacy with the social dynamics of a friendly, inter-generational community. Meadow Wood comes together through active listening, mutual respect, an appreciation of differences, and honest caring. Community decisions are made by consensus. There is no single leader, everyone shares responsibility for managing the place; everybody contributes according to their strengths and choice. Residents either own their units or rent from owners. We are committed to an equitable stewardship of the land and resources, with a commitment to uphold the dignity of each person.
