Nuestra casa

Descripción de la casa que ofrecemos en intercambio

Being retired, I look forward to more opportunities to travel, and being able to travel year round.

In 2018, the house was completely renovated. The result is a modern, minimalist home, set in a mature private garden. The house is open and light filled, with strong indoor/outdoor connections. There is a large covered patio off the living/dining area and an East facing deck, set in a green roof, off the master bedroom - the perfect place for morning coffee/tea.

I enjoy cooking. The kitchen has a gas range, sharp knives and quality cookware. The kitchen is open to the living/dining area and surrounded by windows onto the garden. You can listen to the stereo, and watch the birds while you prepare meals. I value sleep - the mattresses are natural latex foam, and have quality down duvets.

I love to have my granddaughters visit. There is a children's bedroom with trundle beds, children's books, toys, highchairs etc., and a sandbox, play house, and climbing wall in the garden. Although I have a TV it is only used to stream on-line programming. I do not have cable TV. I have two ocean kayaks. If you are experienced paddlers, you may borrow them.

Descripción de nuestro barrio y la zona en que se encuentra

A green and quiet neighbourhood, close to several beaches, and hiking at Mount Douglas Park. The house is near the University of Victoria. You can walk to an excellent coffee shop, but will need a car/bike/bus to get groceries. There are two bikes with panniers and the house is on a bus route. The closest shopping hub is 4km away.

The garden has many birds. If you enjoy watching them, you will need to fill the feeders. If possible, please feed gold fish in the small pond, and water houseplants once a week.
