Description

I am looking for a clean, dry, quiet room to rent- ideally sharing with 1 or 2 other friendly older non-smoking individuals. I can move in anytime. For sure by March 1st, but ideally by Feb. 1st or earlier.

I am looking for a place near to my work on Bowen Road in Nanaimo. I’m currently renting a room on Gabriola Island, but I’ve found the whole ferry thing far too expensive and inconvenient as I need to work late many days, and I’d like to be able to work for a few hours on the weekends and not have to take a ferry.

I am a single mature young-at-heart (I became a lawyer at the age of 50), empty-nester who recently moved to BC to re-settle near to my future grandchildren.

I don’t smoke or do drugs or have parties (although I did such things in my errant youth). I drink occasionally. When I am not at work I spend most of my time cooking healthy meals, walking, reading, watching/listening to podcasts and puttering with various hobbies.

I am hoping to find a place that has some storage available (a corner in a dry shed or garage for my hobby stuff). For example, I have a pottery wheel and metal detecting equipment and camping gear and some solar equipment and tools that I don’t want to haul up or down stairs or keep in my room (unless there is room in the room and it is on the main floor, in which case I don’t mind keeping my hobby stuff there). I don’t really have time for hobbies right now as I just started a new job and I am busy working all the time.

I am a friendly, easy-going, respectful adult who loves all animals, especially dogs (so sharing a home with people who have dogs would be a bonus).

I would like to live near or in nature if possible. Ideally I am looking for a main floor room to rent in a house with a back yard. But practically speaking, for now I really just need a clean and quiet place to sleep that is not a ferry ride away from work. I do need off-street parking for my van and my e-bike.

I am fully vaccinated and boosted. I’ve never had Covid-19 and I prefer not to put my health and the health of my loved ones at risk by living with people who don’t believe in vaccination.
