WHY COLIVING?
Live. Work. Share.
Coliving is a new take on an old idea. Although shared living has been around forever, the modern concept is still relatively new. The Chandlery offers many benefits, but the most compelling are affordability, community, and convenience.
Affordability. Renting an apartment is more expensive than sharing a home with others, especially when you consider the cost of furniture, utilities, and the additional space shared living provides.
Community. Even if you could live on your own, coliving offers the opportunity to meet new people while still enjoying privacy. Shared spaces make casual interaction easy, and private bedrooms provide a place to unwind.
Convenience. The Chandlery makes moving simple. There’s no need to furnish an apartment, coordinate with roommates, or sign a long-term lease. Just bring your personal belongings and settle in.
