Grow Your Dreams Here

We are selling our 20 acre intentional family homestead located in the North Cascade foothills (Snohomish County) of Washington State. This site is perfectly poised for someone to take what we have started and move it in the direction of your own dreams.

The rest is mixed evergreen and deciduous temperate forest with hiking trails and a small stream. The well maintained main house is 3br 2ba, 1500 sq ft with a large back porch and lots of updates (flooring, new roof, new front porch, etc). Property includes:

>Two additional small well insulated dry homes/studios with power & electric.

>Space and electric for three more outbuildings.  
<A large and beautiful wood-fired cob sauna.
>Two micro-shelter cabins suitable for summer occupancy.
>Pump house shed that doubles as garden storage.
>Several gardens, including a greenhouse, hoop houses, and hugel mounds.
>Woodshed that holds up ten cords of wood, currently almost full.
>A smaller outbuilding that could be storage or turned into an additional living space.

It looks amazing, Scott! I've added it to two other forums:  permaculture real estate and intentional community. Any others you'd like it added to?

I can't afford this, but I'm hoping someone who can is interested in continuing the Intentional Community model when they purchase it. I'm living in Washington state (King County currently), & have been looking out for potential Intentional Communities for a while. I'm extremely new to all this permaculture stuff, but am very interested in learning as much about it as I can. Hopefully, I'll eventually find an intentional community nearby, & can contribute to helping myself & others connect to the land more closely. I'm relatively young (28) & in fairly good shape, So I can definitely put in the work once I know how. I'll be keeping an eye out.

I’d love to be a part of this. If others are interested in a collective buying group, let’s talk! Or if a single owner is interested in buying and wants community members, I’d be interested in knowing more.

Hi, I contacted you through ic.org too, but definitely interested, we have a small forming community that is looking for something like this. Would love to know more and visit!

And Carrie, if you have any interest in joining our group, let me know. We have a weekly zoom meeting where anyone is welcome and you can see if you like the vibe.

Hi Jerrilee, yes I’d love that! I will PM you with my email.

I spotted this on their facebook page, and thought I'd post it here for them (as I'm sure they're quite busy right now, especially with having had such crazy-high heat for days due to the pacific coast heat dome)

We have received great interest in the property - beyond our expectations. Thank you for this wonderful community! It is a situation that we have never been in and are not sure how to proceed.  We are in conversation on whether it is in the best interest of all parties to just put the property on the market and then give each party to ability to get their own buyer broker to represent them. Or, to continue with the an off-market sale as we initially intended, with all parties acknowledging that there are several buyers who want to purchase the property and they would be competing with others to purchase the property off market in a multiple offer situation. We have some thinking to do and we are not sure which way we will go.  We wanted to keep you informed on where we are on the sale of the home and the decision we need to make.

Jerrilee, I am interested in a forming community that it may be possible for me to join in too. I hope I can get a message for a way to be in communication for that too. I am most interested in very simple living growing things from vegetation for all that would be needed and would be wanted. There are natural ways of farming, such as were shown by Masanobu Fukuoka, that really interest me, and I would like others interested in participating with me in the farming I would do.

I just saw on facebook that they've listed the site for sale on redfin:

Looks like the property sold several months ago.
