About the property
This is not a single-room rental.
You’re renting a private, furnished upstairs suite within a shared house — meaning you get your own dedicated living zone, while enjoying full access to the entire home.
Your private space includes:
A furnished bedroom
A separate furnished office / den / living space — ideal for working from home, studying, or simply keeping work and sleep life separate
A private bathroom (no sharing, no schedules, no toothpaste politics)
The upstairs setup feels like its own quiet, personal zone — much more like a small apartment within a house than a typical roommate situation.
The house itself is clean, well-maintained, and calm. Shared spaces are respectful and uncluttered, with full access to the kitchen, laundry, and common areas. The overall vibe is adult, relaxed, and low-drama — very much a “take your shoes off, exhale, live your life” kind of home.
There are dogs in the house, so being dog-friendly is a must. They’re well-behaved, friendly, and excellent coworkers if you work from home — no rent, lots of personality.
Location-wise, it’s excellent: close to the train, multiple bus routes within a 5-minute walk, and just off Highway 20 for easy downtown access. It’s also conveniently located near the new Kirkland REM station, making commuting simple even without a car. The neighborhood is quiet, green, and residential — the best kind of balance between calm and connectivity.
This setup is ideal for someone who wants space, privacy, and a peaceful shared home, without paying full apartment prices.
