We love all our visitors!
A big advantage to being a “cohousing” community is the shared connections we have with each other at Treehouse Village — and with each other’s visitors, who come for the afternoon to hang out, or the evening to attend an event here, or to stay overnight in one of our guest rooms. We’ve welcomed at least eight visitors to Treehouse Village over the past week! They got to explore our 4000-sq.ft. Common House, our 11 acres of forested land, our climate-smart housing development (with solar panels on our rooftops!) … along with the chance to have spontaneous conversations with residents…

Treehouse Villagers Choose Condo Board Directors
Treehouse Village reached another milestone on April 28, as the community’s newly registered condominium corporation held its first Annual General Meeting and chose the new condo board. Self-governed and co-developed by its residents, Treehouse Village is a welcome option for those seeking eco-friendly, community-oriented living. One of the first decisions the community made in 2018 was to select sociocracy for our decision-making processes. Sociocracy is a governance system for groups that wish to self-govern based on values of equity and inclusion, in order to save time, make inclusive decisions and create more human organizations. The owner-households unanimously chose the following…

The Maple: Bright, spacious and perfect for families or working from home
It was the windows and the work-from-home potential that drew Megan Beliveau and Matt van Bommel to the Maple. “We considered each type of unit at one point or another and we finally chose a Maple unit because we liked that it was on the second floor,” says Megan. “We also liked that there would be so many windows being on the end of the building. And given that we both work remotely and both prefer separate offices, we liked that we could convert the ensuite bathroom into an office.” The 1,006 square-foot Maple, priced under $440,000, is not only…
