Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

Our lovely two-floor craftsman style character home is on a quiet street near lively Commercial Drive in East Vancouver. It has two bedrooms (one upstairs and one downstairs), plus an upstairs office. The kitchen has a stove (including oven), fridge, dishwasher, and microwave and is well-equipped because we love to cook. There is a separate dining room, adjoined to the living room by glass doors. The bathroom has a full size bathtub and shower. The private backyard has a flagstone patio, and is a lovely, quiet place to dine in fine weather. We have cable TV and WIFI, and the office is equipped with a printer. I is a 5 minute walk to Commercial Drive, one of the liveliest and most popular streets in Vancouver, where you can find lots of restaurants, coffee shops, shopping, and nightlife and a 10 walk to the Broadway skytrain station, which is a major transit hub for the city, providing easy access to downtown, universities, and the airport. Available for short-term rental Sept-Dec 2016.

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

Our neighborhood is one of the most popular and culturally diverse areas of Vancouver. We are a 5 minute walk from the lively and popular Commercial Drive, where you can find lots of restaurants, coffee shops, shopping, and nightlife. It is a 10 minute walk to the Broadway skytrain station, which provides quick access to the downtown/westend of Vancouver, as well as to the airport and other areas. City buses to the two main universities are also available from the Broadway station. Beautiful Trout Lake in John Hendry Park is 8 blocks away from our house, and is a lovely place for walking and picnicking. A new community centre with gymnasium is located in the park, and it is also home to a weekly outdoor market from May to October.
