Massachusetts Cohousing LLC, a joint venture between privately held real estate development, investment, and advisory company The Lexvest Group LLC (Maynard, Mass.) and Middlesex Senior Cohousing LLC (Boston), a group 55+ seniors living in 12 households located in various towns in the Greater Boston area, are building a 55+ cohousing development in Littleton, Mass.
Situated on 15 acres, Hager Homestead will feature 24 units and will be constructed in two phases. A former dental office will be razed to make way for a three-story, 15-unit building. Additionally, three cottages with multiple residential units will be constructed from the ground up, while a single-family home located on the site will be renovated into two housing units. Eight of the units will be designated as affordable or staff housing.
As part of the project, a historic, three-story, 2,500-square-foot farmhouse will be renovated into the Hager Homestead’s Common House and include a dining room, kitchen, community space, living room, library, and exercise room.
The community will also include 12 acres of open space that features walking paths, a meadow, pond, and wetlands and will be protected in perpetuity by a conservation restriction.
Sheldon Pennoyer Architects (Concord, N.H.) is the architect on the project and Nauset Construction (Needham, Mass.) will serve as construction manager.
