Vashon Household Co-Housing
Vashon, WA 98070
We provided full development services to Vashon Household help them build the five houses that would later grow into the Vashon Household Co-Housing community. VHH sold these first five homes to income-qualified first-time buyers. Though owned outright by their buyers, by covenant these houses can only be resold to people whose incomes do not exceed 80% of the area median income and who have completed VHH’s screening process. The homes must be resold below market value to serve future generations of low-income buyers. Today, the community has grown to families living in 18 private homes on 12 acres near the town of Vashon. Co-Housing homes are clustered to preserve surrounding woods and open space. Each household has a private residence but also shares extensive common facilities such as a dining hall, children’s playrooms, workshops, guest rooms, and laundry facilities.
