Sunward Cohousing
Ann Arbor, MI

We are an intentional community located on 20 acres of woods and ponds one-half mile west of Ann Arbor, Michigan. Are you ready to live, work, and play in a community?

From Planet Community: Cohousing communities are collaborative neighborhoods created with intention and a little ingenuity. This video gives an introduction to the 3 Ann Arbor cohousing communities: Sunward, Great Oak, and Touchstone.

 

What is Cohousing?

  • A place were everyone knows your name.

  • A pedestrian community with a car-free campus (vehicles are parked on the periphery).

  • Sustainable living.

  • Common facilities.

  • Good connections with neighbors.

  • Self-governing. Community members are active participants in governing and maintaining buildings and grounds.
