PRAG House is seeking a housemate who is excited to engage in long-term and intentional community building in a large, shared house. You’ll enjoy a private bedroom, communal living spaces, on-site laundry, and proximity to many restaurants/grocery stores on Capitol Hill.
The house itself is a large residence near Volunteer Park, built in the early 1900s.
BIPOC, women, LGBTQ people, and non-binary people are strongly encouraged to apply.
About us: We are a 12-person house from a diverse range of cultures, communities, ages, and experiences. Diversity and equity are among our shared values. For more information, please visit our Foundation for Intentional Community listing (https://www.ic.org/directory/prag-house/).
We are members of the Evergreen Land Trust, and we communally own and maintain this space without a landlord. We have meetings once a month and steward the property with sustainable practices.
Together, we:
-Work together to make our house a home.
-Maintain the physical, business, and social sides of the house, including grocery trips at the Central Co-op, yard work, accounting, and maintenance.
-Share occasional house dinners.
-Make tacos, pizza, pierogies, dumplings.
-Grow and enjoy fresh herbs from our yard.
-Plan occasional bike trips and retreats.
-Read, play games, and puzzle by the fireplace.
-Occasional movie nights.
-Dream of ways to make the house more welcoming.
-Learn from one another.
Logistics:
-Dues are $680 per month and $240 per month for shared food/household supplies plus 5% of net monthly earnings excluding medical, food, childcare, and retirement expenses.
-Room is available now, but there is a progressive application process that invited applicants would complete, including a phone screening and an interview with all members.
-We do require that all residents contribute at least four hours a month towards our mission of stewardship.
Features:
-Street parking. The house is walking distance to many bus lines, including the 2, 8, and 10, and is a mile from the Capitol Hill rail station.
We cannot accept pets at the moment as we have a roommate that is allergic.
