$850/mo · 1 room available · ALL utilities included · Month-to-month lease · next to epic Phoenix Mountain Preserve
Howdy! I'm Ethan, and three months ago I began building a "house for human flourishing" in the foothills of my favorite Phoenix mountains. Two rooms are available now for rent! Here's a quick rundown, then the full story below.
Quick Rundown:
* The room is $850/month, ALL utilities, wifi, & basics included (paper towels, TP, hand soap, laundry detergent, trash bags, etc)
* 4-bed, 2-bath, 1,864 sqft house, I live in the primary bedroom, and two rented rooms share one bathroom (pictured)
* Month-to-month, $850 security deposit, 30 days notice to vacate
* Fully stocked kitchen — pots, pans, plates, bowls, utensils, fridge/cabinet space for your food
* Washer/dryer, shared 2nd driveway + street parking
* A low-key, curated sanctuary for nourishing body, mind, and spirit with epic entry point to Phoenix Mountain trails
Full story:
I'm a long-term traveler, Phoenix-native, wellness-enthusiast, and multi-medium creative who's long dreamed of building an experimental co-living space here in the valley of the sun — one that promotes well-being biologically, habitually, creatively, naturally, and communally. A nourishing environment that draws “deeper” individuals, fosters wellbeing, and offers easy engagement with the natural world.
Two months in, this currently looks like:
* Standing desks
* Floor seating
* Indoor plants
* A library of remarkable books
* No TVs (but a 10' pull-down projector screen for occasional cinematic escape)
* Yoga mats, stretch bands, & foam roller
* Meditation cushions
* Musical instruments for jamming
* Hammock chairs
* Warm-amber lighting throughout
* Ample space to unwind
* Storage for bikes and outdoor gear
The space is located a five-minute walk from a superb section of the Phoenix Mountains Preserve and a five-minute drive from the 51 Freeway (read: central Phoenix, AND in a cove of mountains).
The interior has largely come together! The exterior comes next. Landscaping, a garage-to-casita conversion, and a backyard desert wellness oasis — sauna, cold plunge, a big new patio with gymnastic rings and workout equipment — are in the works and will probably take another 6-12 months to unfold.
Looking for a generally clean and organized fellow being interested in relishing this space, who values healthy living and getting outside, and doesn't require a TV to keep them company most nights.
Note: if you love trail running, mountain biking, or watching Phoenix sunsets from mountain peaks, this house is located in *the* place to do so.
A bedroom here is an empty, blank canvas for you to fill. The rest of the house is curated space, yours to use to your heart's content — but mindfully curated by yours truly as an ongoing experiment in building "a house for human flourishing."
Simple terms: month-to-month, $850 security deposit, no smoking inside, and 30 days notice to vacate.
