Camelot Cohousing Trustees

Overview

Sawyer Hill EcoVillage is comprised of two cohousing neighborhoods, Mosaic Commons and Camelot Cohousing. Cohousing is a modern style of residential neighborhood in which some resources are shared in common by the residents. Each family owns their home, as well as a share of the common facilities, which include things like playing fields and gardens. Our community values green space, a safe, healthy environment for our children and conservation of our natural resources. The cohousing development model began in Denmark during the late 1960s, and has since become a mainstream housing option in that country. This innovative neighborhood design crossed the Atlantic in the late 1980s, and over 50 successful communities have built all over the United States since that time, with many others that have purchased land and are in the development process. There are ten completed cohousing communities in Massachusetts and at least two others in the development or construction phase.

About Cohousing

Cohousing refers to private communities where residents live in clusters of homes or condos close to one another. Cohousing embraces community involvement as a lifestyle. Residents share everything from mealtimes to cleaning and laundry duties and even celebrations and holidays.

Senior cohousing communities are specifically designed to foster strong bonds and a sense of community among residents. These communities provide an opportunity for active seniors to join a close-knit group of individuals who share common interests and values. Living in a senior cohousing community allows you to engage in social interactions with fellow residents, both inside your own private home and within the common areas of the community. The physical layout and design of these communities facilitate easy interaction and encourage neighborly connections.

These communities often offer a range of shared activities and resources, such as craft classes, woodworking workshops, day trips, and extended travel opportunities. The emphasis is on creating an inclusive environment where individuals can bring their own talents, skills, and abilities to contribute to the community.
