What Makes a Property Ideal for Sober Living?
When it comes to sober living, not just any home will do.
Operators know that a beautiful listing on Zillow doesn’t guarantee a property is compliant, functional, or even safe for residents in recovery. The stakes are high—and the right environment can make all the difference.
At Clean Slate, we design and lease homes specifically built to support recovery programs. Here’s what makes a property truly ideal for sober living.
1. A Layout That Supports Structure and Community
Sober living homes thrive on structure, routine, and positive social dynamics. That starts with a smart, functional layout.
Multi-bed designs with natural flow
Private spaces for rest and reflection
Common areas that foster accountability and interaction
We intentionally design homes with these priorities in mind—not as an afterthought, but as a foundation.
2. ADA & Code Compliance Built In
Most homes are not ADA-compliant by default.
Ours are.
From grab bars in bathrooms to emergency egress windows, we make sure our homes meet or exceed all applicable regulations—so you’re not caught scrambling before inspections or license applications.
Wheelchair-accessible bathrooms
Code-compliant exits and entrances
Fire safety and emergency readiness baked in
This isn’t just about passing inspections—it’s about protecting residents and your reputation.
3. Community Spaces That Encourage Connection
Recovery happens in community.
Whether it’s a shared meal in the kitchen or a conversation in the living room, your home needs intentional, inviting spaces.
Our properties feature:
Open-plan kitchens
Spacious common rooms
Outdoor areas for movement, mindfulness, or meetings
We believe every home should be a safe, welcoming space where connection is easy—not awkward or crowded.
4. Practical Details That Actually Matter
Most landlords overlook the real-world needs of a recovery program. We don’t.
In-home laundry
Ample storage
Off-street parking
Durable, easy-to-clean finishes
Flexible lease terms tailored to your program
We know what it takes to run a house—and we’ve built around that.
5. Turnkey Saves You Time and Stress
Every day you’re delayed by a bad landlord or an unfit property is a day your program loses money and momentum.
With Clean Slate, every home is move-in ready.
No retrofits. No guessing. No chasing down permits or contractors.
