Other details: both home utilities (electric, wood-fired heat, propane range/dryer) and community expenses (shared property taxes, insurance, reserve funds, plowing, etc.) are paid via monthly “community dues” which vary according to a longstanding formula (and discussed annually as part of our budgeting process) based on home square footage and number of occupants - current owners (2) pay $513/mo, which includes everything except their own phone and fiber optic internet service. Hartland property taxes on this home for 2026-27 are $10,164.96.
Timeline: the current owners purchased a new home this summer; 36 Linden Rd is empty and awaiting its new owners! Move in ready.
Price: per our community agreements, this home was professionally appraised at $628,000 based on many things, like its age, construction, and the greater Upper Valley housing market. You’re also buying more than just a house, of course - we all own 1/23rd of the shared acreage and other buildings.

Living at Cobb Hill
Purchasing a home at Cobb Hill is about more than buying real estate. It is an invitation to become part of an intentional cohousing community where neighbors collaborate to care for the land, share responsibilities, and cultivate meaningful relationships.
All prospective buyers participate in our exploration process, which provides an opportunity for both the community and prospective members to determine whether Cobb Hill is the right fit and that we’ll all thrive here together. Residents contribute to community work, serve on committees, and engage in shared decision-making processes.
We encourage interested buyers to visit, meet community members, and experience life here firsthand.
Note: Traditional financing pathways can be difficult for common house apartments due to the unconventional nature of the sale of a private dwelling within a communally owned, multi-use space.
Rent-to-buy option may be available through the current owner for qualified applicants. Serious inquiries only.
Serious inquiries for home purchases and full membership can be made through this link. Someone from our membership team will contact you as soon as possible. Reach our membership committee at membership@cobbhill.org.
Rental Units
Historically, Cobb Hill has had very limited rental opportunities, which is common for cohousing communities where folks own their own homes. As economic conditions shift and affordability becomes an increasing concern, we are thoughtfully exploring ways to create more accessible entry points into the community and allow current owners to generate some rental income. In some cases, this has included adapting existing single-family homes to create additional dwelling spaces.
We currently have 2 rental spaces available (as of 9/1/26)
Rentals managed by homeowners: you may inquire for info through membership to be connected with the homeowner directly. Each homeowner maintains their own application and screening process.
We are currently in the process of clarifying and redefining what it means to be a “renter” at Cobb Hill in terms of participation expectations. Currently, short-term renters (less than 6 months) are encouraged but not required to engage fully in community life, including workdays, potlucks, the labor of heating our homes with a wood-burning furnace system, gardening and agricultural enterprises, and the social fabric of our community by engaging in the email listserv, and many other ways we support each other and maintain the vision, land, buildings and gardens, animals, and people of this place. We prioritize inquiries from folks who are willing and able to join us in the fullness of life here.
We also welcome and prioritize long-term commitment from renters, and encourage them to become a full member, including attendance at community meetings and participation in our consensus governance and committee work.
For those who wish to extend a rental beyond six months, we require participation in our exploration process and a transition toward full membership. This helps ensure alignment with the values, responsibilities, and commitments of life at Cobb Hill.
We currently have the following spaces available for rental (as of 9/1/26)
Studio “garden” apartment (300 sq ft) with private living/dining/kitchen/bath and shared entrance/hallway/mudroom. Email lolo.mcclure@gmail.com
