  4. Executive Open-Concept Main Floor Covered entry, laminate hardwood, natural gas fireplace as the focal point. Sliding glass doors bring in late west light and flow straight to the patio.

  5. Maple Kitchen Built for Actual Cooking Solid maple cabinets, central island with breakfast bar, full pantry, full-size fridge, electric range/oven, built-in microwave, and ultra-quiet dishwasher. Open to living/dining for social cooking.

  10. Why It Works for Professionals & Scholars Quiet, high-privacy upstairs living + expansive shared downstairs for entertaining + park + single-seat transit to UVic/Camosun/Downtown + walkable groceries and dining (Browns Socialhouse, Canadian Brewhouse, Starbucks, sushi/poke/pho).

About the roomies

Hi, I’m Michael, the homeowner. I’m a quiet and respectful person who primarily works from home in the living room. ​High-speed Wi-Fi is included. Please note that I don’t subscribe to cable TV, though if you’d like a TV in your bedroom, that can easily be arranged (you would just need to supply your own cable box or streaming device). ​The primary suite is rented to another roommate who parks in the driveway. If you have a vehicle, there is plenty of free, unrestricted 24/7 street parking directly outside the complex.

I found the site to be clear of scams which is very much appreciated since there's so much garbage out there on the web.
