Room for Rent in Cozy, Creative Townhouse – Female Only (Steps from SkyTrain in Marpole)

Looking for a clean, friendly, and reliable female roommate to share a warm, art-filled townhouse in Marpole—right across from the SkyTrain, major bus routes, and all the essentials. T&T Supermarket, Shoppers Drug Mart, Cineplex VIP, Starbucks, Tim Hortons, banks, and restaurants are all just steps away.

Located in a gated community with friendly neighbors. There is a bit of daytime construction nearby (just being real), but the home itself is cozy and full of charm.

This is a peaceful and welcoming space with cozy lighting, plants, art, and room to breathe. The common areas are fully furnished; your private bedroom is unfurnished, with optional nightstands available.

What’s Included: • Private bedroom • 2 shared bathrooms • Fully equipped kitchen with cookware and dishes • Cozy living room with a warm, working fireplace • Covered patio with string lights, firepit, and greenery • Backyard with seating + a flower bed that could become a small garden • In-unit laundry • Wi-Fi + all utilities included • BBQ for shared use • Underground parking spot included

⸻

Bonus Opportunity: I occasionally travel for work—usually for a couple of weeks at a time—and during those times, I offer $100 off rent per week in exchange for caring for my cats and keeping the house clean and cared for.

You’d have the entire place to yourself while I’m away, making it a perfect setup for someone who loves animals, enjoys solo time, and wants to save money while living in a cozy, creative space.

⸻

Rent: $1,250/month (all-in) Includes Wi-Fi, laundry, utilities, and underground parking $100/week rent discount during cat/house care weeks Available June 15 (possibly earlier) Open to discussing a short-term trial to make sure it’s a good fit for both of us

⸻

If this sounds like your kind of home, send me a message and tell me a bit about yourself. I’d love to hear from you and see if it’s a good fit!

About Me: I’m 33 and wear a few hats—I run heavy equipment, operate my own photography business, and I’m an artist at heart. I’m currently completing my practicum as a counselling student and have put a lot of love into making this space feel peaceful, expressive, and homey. I’m looking to share it with someone who’s kind, cat-friendly, and values a calm, respectful living environment.
