Gary MacLellan's room

Lachine, QC H8S 3S6

The building is a 5 1/2 duplex, and my apartment is on the ground floor, with 3 bedrooms, the largest of which would be yours. There is a small backyard, with a deck that is used for barbeque, or reading under a large umbrella, or gardening. Neighbours are quiet and friendly. The front yard has a large tree on it, that shades the property. There is room on the street for cars, and there is a municipal parking lot at the end of our street that is free of charge for short periods of time. If you need bus transportation, there are several bus routes within a block our house, including express buses. There is a hospital, multiple grocery stores, several depanneurs, pharmacies, cafes, sandwicherie/patisserie, restaurants, an arena (hockey), soccer and baseball fields, and much more, all within a short walk of our place. Easy access to bicycles, especially along the bike paths near Lakeshore. Cycling, jogging, walking, or taking a walk along the Lachine canal, with the view of Lac Saint Louis, why would anyone want to be anywhere but here?

I live alone. I’m retired. I’m quiet. I don’t smoke. I don’t drink, do drugs or swear (maybe once in a while). If you smoke, take it outside, preferably around the block. No drugs allowed, ever. I know cannabis is legal, but that too has to be taken around the block. I know I’m sweet and all, but I can be a hard-ass if things get out of control. My brother , his wife and his daughter live upstairs in their apartment. The basement is used by me for laundry, but the rest of the basement is used by my downstairs neighbour and his girlfriend. One last thing, I would love to learn French. I’m determined to get better at listening and speaking, so if my coloc knows how to speak French, that would be amazing.
