Gregg's room

Canmore, AB T1W 1H1

120 ft2 room* in fully furnished house with classic “Three Sisters” view

*Utilities shared (owner pays 50% remainder shared: see below)

I live in a 5-split house on the sunny side of Canmore with a classic Three Sisters view that I share with my cat Ritzy and my dog Blue. I am renting portions of my house to cover the additional costs of a recent life change. I currently live in the main bedroom on the 5th floor and the room for rent is on the 3rd floor.

The house:

1. Fully Radon-abated*
2. 100% Green electricity**
3. HEPA air filtration***
4. GB internet
5. Cable TV
6. Laundry
7. Central vac
8. Smart lock & video doorbell
9. Smart smoke alarms
10. Fully furnished

• Many homes in Canmore exceed Environment Canada’s 200 bq/m3 radon limit. This is equivalent to smoking 8 cigarettes per day. ** This is one of my values and so I cover the Green surcharge, see below. *** Multiple, large Blue Air HEPA filters are available when fire smoke is present.

The room: • Mountain view • Above ground • Freshly painted • Tastefully furnished/decorated • New “Douglas” mattress • Full closet with organizer shelving

Layout:

1. Brand new appliances (including dishwasher, refrigerator and an induction stove with sous-vide, air fry, steam cook, etc.)
2. Microwave, toaster, separate air fryer, kettle, etc.
3. Large kitchen / living room space with 270° view of Three Sisters, Ha Ling, etc.
4. Separate living space / sitting room
5. Separate bathroom on 3rd floor with upgraded shower/bath
6. Three, separate outdoor spaces (back patio, front patio, upstairs patio with BBQ & sitting area)
7. Good street parking
8. 3rd floor windows functional but due for replacement within 12 months

Location: • 150m to Grotto Mountain trails (yes, literally) • 300m to bus • 350m to Epi • 450m to Valbella • 550m to Wildlife / Sheep Dog • 500m to Iron Goat • 600m to Fergies / Summit Café

Terms: • $1382.33 monthly (=$319/week) • Utilities are “hybrid” (I value environmental care and a “hybrid” approach encourages responsible resource use.)

o Fully covered by owner: GB internet & cable

o Partially covered by owner: electricity, gas, water & sewer

 Owner pays approx. 50% of E, G, H2O (including all taxes, municipal/ retailer fees, electrical Green surcharge & transmission, recycling & solid waste charges)

 Renters & owner share remaining “pay-per-use” charges (actual El, G and H2O consumed)

• Full transparency—renters can see bills

Q: How much to expect for utilities? A: At full occupancy, a conscientious renter in Summer can pay $35/month, in Winter around $75/month on average (less if you keep the heat at 18° and wear a sweater!).

About me: I love living here! All the photos of the mountains are actually taken from my upstairs balcony. As this is my home, I have done substantial work for its development to ensure that it is functional, I can enjoy and feel proud of it. So I am a very responsive landlord: if something needs fixing, it gets fixed. Finally, my 86 year old mother lives 300 m away and visits upon occasion. I also love Eurogames (I own about 100).

About you: You enjoy and want to be in Canmore! You like pets and are willing to be careful to ensure that you don’t leave doors open (my cat is slow but still tries to escape). You have open communication and are willing to engage with me and other renters to express your needs, ask questions and work toward maximizing harmony and enjoyment of this space. You are willing to abide by a general quiet period of 10 PM to 8 AM (exceptions under certain circumstances). And you meet the requirements, below.

Requirements:

• Single occupancy
• Non-smoker, no drugs, no parties, no subwoofers
• No pets—please enjoy mine, they are very sociable!
• Personal reference
• Employment reference
• $1000 damage deposit
• Lease of 6 months+ (exceptions under certain circumstances)

PLEASE DM if interested.
