About the room
Hey folks,
Looking for a roomie who would mesh with our clean, comfy and adorable character home.
This would be perfect for someone who would appreciate living in a quiet shared space with a beautiful yard, large and beautiful living room and kitchen, and clawfoot tub! Open to someone for February (preferred) or March 1st. $900, which includes amenities, internet, light cleaning, basement with laundry/storage and easy street parking. Heat/hydro are extra. 6 month contract preferred and deposit required to secure the room.
The house is 100 years old and has character, light, and love in it. It’s a three bedroom main floor apartment of a triplex but only shared between two of us. It is located in Oaklands, just 5 mins walk to Jubilee hospital and Camosun Lansdowne campus, and 15 minutes biking to downtown and UVIC.
Looking for someone who’s skilled at living with others, with Nonviolent Communication, tolerance of others and knows how to strike a balance between enjoying alone time vs. social time in the house. We are two females, one in her 30’s other in her 40’s, and two sweet pets, and we have shared the space with our lovely male roommate for the past year, and the house has been harmonious and clean, and we’d love to keep it that way! We’ve been waiting for the right person to come along before committing to a long term roomie, so maybe that can be you!
I have a longer ad that I can send you the link to via Private Message should you like more info about the room for rent. Please note that the room is for one person (no couples) and I’m allergic to smoke and almost all furry pets.
If interested, please DM me with answers to the following Qs:
- Please tell us about you and your experience living with others and what your ideal living situation would look like?
- Why does this house interest you and how long would you like to live here ideally?
- What is your age and occupation?
- Can you tell me about your diet? I have severe allergies to certain foods, and mild allergies to a few others. Would you be willing to avoid certain foods to assist in helping the house feel safe?
Looking forward to meeting you!
- Last two pics are of the available room, and yes it has doors (can’t be seen behind the curtains in the photo) ;)
Unfortunately no couples, smokers or pets.
About the roomies
I’m a friendly, community oriented, stable, meditating and yogaing, calm, yet quirky gal who enjoys living with others and having time to myself, sharing awesome meals, playing music together, hosting movie projector nights and sharing stories with those around me. I’m searching for (and offer myself as) a clean, friendly, and reliable roommate who is skilled at living with others, offers great communication and conflict resolution skills, and planning to live in Victoria for a while.
My current roomie is in her 30s, very quiet, sweet, clean and kind. She enjoys crocheting in her spare time and loves walking to explore the city. She’s a great communicator and is helpful and supportive to the house!
We’re hoping to co-create a respectful and solid living environment where we are both mindful, accountable and strive to cultivate a harmonious living environment. If you want to live in a comfortable, stable, clean and cozy home, and you feel drawn to co-habiting mindfully and playfully, then please inquire within :)
Thank you for taking the time to respond, and feel free to send us some questions too!
Looking forward to meeting you!
