Koduvahetuseks pakutava kodu kirjeldus
Detached two storey home in a fantastic location great for exploring everything Vancouver and the area has to offer. After a day of exploring you can relax in a lounge chair on the upstairs patio and enjoy the partial water view. Or if you want more space walk down the stairs to sit on the ground floor deck which continues into our beautifully landscaped garden complete with a waterfall feature and grassy area.
Our main living area is up one flight of stairs and features an open concept living/dining room and kitchen. The kitchen is modern with stone counters, stainless steel appliances and a large kitchen island. Also on this main level are two bathrooms (one with tub) and 2 bedrooms - the primary with King size bed and ensuite bathroom with walk in shower, and a 2nd bedroom with double bed. My work office is also on this level and is locked during exchanges.
On the ground-floor when you first enter is a small bedroom with a double wall bed that can be used with the main home to create 3 bedrooms.
If you need additional space we can include our unoccupied suite on the ground level. The door can be opened up to the main living area to create one large home. The suite has its own kitchen, living area, bathroom with shower, and bedroom with queen bed.
For non-simultaneous exchanges we can offer the ground level suite anytime (1 or 2 bedrooms), or the entire house if we are cruising or exploring in our camping trailer.
Note: Paul is allergic to cats so we cannot exchange with a home that has cats even if they are gone.

Ümbruskonna kirjeldus
Our home is located in a wonderful residential neighbourhood just east of Vancouver. Easy transit is only 1 block away with Express Bus to downtown Vancouver (34min), as well as buses to Metrotown Mall, Vancouver International Airport and many other attractions. Barnett beach is only 5min away, and Burnaby Mountain is at the end of our street, with many forest hiking trails. Burnaby Mountain is also a tourist destination and we definitely recommend you drive up and enjoy amazing views. Our local shopping plaza with restaurants is a 5 minute drive (15 min walk). Our home is situated in a perfect location to explore all the Vancouver area has to offer, as well as day trips to Whistler Resort and ferries to Victoria BC. You can also reach Seattle USA in 3 hours. During winter you can ski at any of our three local ski hills, all within a 40min drive, or venture to world famous Whistler/Blackcomb Mountain, a 2 hour drive away.

Meie soovitused, kuhu minna ja mida teha ajal, kui viibite meie kodus
You will enjoy walking the trails of Burnaby Mountain and spending time in the forest. The Trans Canada Trail passes by the end of our block. Or easily drive up the mountain to see the view and look out over Vancouver and the Burrard Inlet. While there you will also want to walk through the rose garden, enjoy the playground and have a meal at Mintara restaurant. Barnett Beach is only 5 min away and besides swimming you can watch the boats going by while relaxing in the shade, where there is always a cool breeze. Our home provides easy access to the highway if you wish to travel further and see more of BC, or ski the local mountains. Plus with transit so close by you can head to downtown Vancouver to walk along the waterfront, shop on Robson Street, visit famous Stanley Park or spend the day at one of the many beaches along English Bay. Oh and for the golfers we have a course 5 min down the road!
