Sunward Cohousing

Co-housing embodies the Danish concept of a community-centered life-style in which a group of owners contribute to the project's design process and help create an environment suited to their collective needs. Co-housing owners have ongoing contact through shared activities, communally prepared dinners and participatory governance.

Phoenix has constructed three communities near Ann Arbor's Sister Lakes. Sunward, the first 40-unit complex was completed at a cost of $6,000,000. The project is located on twenty acres and consists of two and three bedroom condos grouped in buildings of 6-8 units, which are clustered together around courtyards with walkways, owner-tended gardens and trails. Roads circle the perimeter of the development creating a people-focused neighborhood.
