Her neighbours Gary and Sharon welcomed us and that was nice to have a neighbour that we could call upon if needed. Beth was very lovely about getting us specific information we need...ie. a good bicycle store for buying cycling shoes! Thank you Beth.

Descrizione della casa che offriamo
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.

Descrizione del vicinato e dei paraggi
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.

Gite interessanti da fare in giornata
Cosa ci piace, cosa non gradiamo… Ecco le regole in casa nostra.
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.
