Outdoor Space

Treehouse Village Ecohousing is located on a 16-acre property adjacent to the Centennial Trail in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia. Every home includes a share in our outdoor space, which is collectively owned and managed by the community.

Our outdoor space follows the cohousing principle of designing for low-stakes interaction with your neighbours as you go about your daily activities. Each front door opens to the central courtyard (Common Green), the main artery of our community that connects us to the heart (Common House) and to each other.

The Common Green offers convenient areas for neighbours to meet and interact, while also serving the functional and social needs of the community in an aesthetic and environmentally responsible way.

In the Common Green and beyond, there are rain gardens and bioswales to manage the stormwater onsite, as well as space for growing food and 11 acres of undeveloped forested land for trails, walking a dog, or foraging for edibles.
