About the room

Looking for someone special to share my home with!

Bright, spacious 2 bedroom + den on the 2nd floor of a big Hintonburg home. The room will be free at the beginning of April, although there might be some flexibility with the dates. The apartment is fully furnished but your room wouldn’t be. It’s a block from Wellington (close to cafés, bakeries, shops, transit, etc.) and the bedroom windows look out onto Hintonburg Park. It has a nice big private sunny deck with a built-in table for summer dinners. There is also a three season sunroom. Laundry is in the basement and is shared with the other units. There is one garage parking spot. Queer friendly.

The quirks: No dishwasher. The ceiling in the shower is low so might be tricky if you’re tall. The lease is up in July (I’ll likely renew and could probably put you on the lease but we could talk about options.)

About the roomies

I like to keep things cozy and enjoy making food and drinks for the people around me. I work from home at the moment (for a non-profit) and am trying to be better at cultivating hobbies outside of work as I settle into the city. I looove my alone time but am looking to build a homey atmosphere where we can share space and enjoy time together. I’m not into horoscopes but I’m a very classic Cancer and it’s really important to me that my home be a peaceful sanctuary. I can be a bit messy (but respectful of common spaces) but I still like to perpetually have fresh flowers on the table. I value open communication and talking things through before tension arises. I’ve had lots of different roommate situations and like to think I’m pretty flexible but my ideal situation is no need for hard rules - things just go with the flow and there is mutual give-and-take and. I’m mildly to moderately careful in terms of COVID and try to strike a balance between precaution and carrying on with life. It would be great to find someone with a similar risk tolerance.

About you: Tidy-ish but not obsessively so. You like my interior design vibe and I like yours. :-) Ideally looking for someone who works and is in a similar life point as me (too tired for wild parties but up for fun here and there). Smoking is fine outside and I don’t care about anything else as long as you’re kind and interesting. Bonus points if you have a dog I can walk or cat I can cuddle with.
