Co-op Casa homes are designed to make it easy to know your neighbors, live without a car, and belong to the neighborhood.
Homes that live like single-family
Duplexes and fourplexes at Co-op Casa are designed to live like single-family homes. Every unit has a private patio or balcony, soundproof walls, and clean indoor air. The courtyard scale is human and neighborhood-friendly — not institutional.
- Private patio or balcony with every home
- Soundproof walls for genuine privacy
- Clean indoor air and draft-free temperature control
- Large private outdoor space — indoor-outdoor living designed in
A courtyard that brings people together
Every Co-op Casa project is built around a shared courtyard filled with native trees and plants, earthen rain basins, and gathering space. The courtyards are designed at a scale where you actually get to know your neighbors — not a parking lot with landscaping, but a real outdoor living room.
Courtyard cluster housing is identified by Tucson housing studies as the highest-priority form for central neighborhoods — because of its human, residential scale.
- Shared courtyard with native ironwood, mesquite, and desert plants
- Earthen rain basins and shade that lowers surrounding temperatures
- Front yard interpretive signage that honors community heritage
Walkable by design
Co-op Casa builds in popular central Tucson neighborhoods — not on the fringe where affordable housing is usually sited after the market picks its preferred locations. Our residents can live comfortably without owning a car.
- Steps from transit, shops, and services
- Close to bikeways and the Loop — secure bike storage on site
- No on-site parking required — freeing space for gardens and gathering
