Housing
Bend, Oregon, 97701
Higher Ground is comprised of 39 single-family homes on seven acres about three miles east of downtown Bend.
The community was planned to provide maximum open space for meadows, play areas, pond, trails, and vegetable garden.
Our common house was the original farmhouse on this property, and we completed a large new dining/kitchen/recreation addition.
People choosing to buy or rent these homes are interested in a socially supportive environment for themselves and their families.
Many homes have been constructed with innovative environmentally responsible building materials.
We share general maintenance responsibilities, and find this to be a valuable component in building community.
We also take conflict resolution seriously and periodically provide positive opportunities for personal growth.
