Our Homes

The Headwaters at North Creek

Located just south of Everett Mall Way on 3rd Ave SW in Everett, Washington, Home and Hope Community Land Trust (HHCLT) owns more than ten acres of second growth cedar trees; the north end of the property has a beaver pond, and North Creek flows from there through southwest Snohomish County to Lake Washington. Here, along a major transit corridor, walking distance to restaurants, shops and a grocery store, HHCLT will work to restore the native plants and also to build 23 “family-sized” homes that are permanently affordable to households making less than 80% of median income. The old logging road marks the path of the new community loop drive, where three ADA ramblers and 10 townhouse-style duplexes will soon stand.

Using pier-pin foundations for most of the homes reduces the disruption to the ground– and surface-water flow, so the stream can continue to heal. All of the homes have “green space” views of the forest and stream. The eastern side of the creek currently has trails, and we will build a footbridge to access them. The homes will have a main-floor flex room and ADA bathroom to facilitate full lifecycle living. Most homes will have three bedrooms and at least two bathrooms, but some will have up to five bedrooms and four bathrooms. We will prioritize sales to renters from the South Everett – Casino Road neighborhood.

The Headwaters PIER and dogwood creek reserve

Located in South Everett, the Headwaters Pier is convenient to jobs and shopping, and will be an intentionally calm community overlooking a salmon stream and beaver pond. Dogwood Creek Reserve, a similar community, is located near the Alderwood Costco in unincorporated Lynnwood. These 19 to 20 homes will be open for reservations April 7th with occupancy near the end of 2025. Watch your email for more details.
