Francisco's room

Waterloo, ON N2L 2B8

I am looking for two housemates to team-up and occupy two rooms in three-bedroom, two-bathroom, semi-detached home on the Uptown West/Westmount neighborhood border. The main floor features a generously sized living room with hardwood flooring and a kitchen. The second floor has 2 large bedrooms with hardwood flooring and a 4-piece bathroom. The basement area has a bedroom, an additional 4-piece bathroom, and laundry. There house has a shared driveway with the house next-door with one (open) parking spot available next to the backyard. The backyard is shared with the other unit.

It’s an easy walk to Uptown Waterloo to the restaurants and cafes, Waterloo Rec Center, Waterloo Park, and Waterloo Public Library, all less than a 10-minute walk. Close to both bus routes and ION light-rail stops for easy access to anywhere in Kitchener-Waterloo. The house is located in a quiet residential area, with a family-friendly atmosphere.

The basement room and one of the second floor rooms are available. The house’s parking spot is available.

The rent for the entire house is $2,500 per month, plus utilities (the price above is an estimate on the split of the rooms.) The minimum stay is a one-year lease, potentially starting on April 1st or as soon as possible (depending on whether both rooms are filled before April 1st.)

Note: This is a shared house, meaning rooms are not rented individually. The entire house is rented as one unit. There is some furniture available in the rooms, if you wish to use it.

About me: I (31M) recently graduated PhD student from McMaster University and I was a resident the the Perimeter Institute. I am currently working at a local startup here in Waterloo (so fellow academics, PhDs and postdocs from universities/institutes in the area, welcome.) I have been a tenant in this house for the majority of my PhD studies, and I can attest the neighborhood is quiet and a peaceful place to stay if that’s what you are looking for. I am quiet, clean, friendly, and I try to keep a consistent schedule. I am not a heavy drinker, and I am not a smoker.

About the landlords: The landlords are a local family living a few houses away on the same street. They are friendly, understanding, diligent and take care of any repairs quickly. They take care of the snow and the backyard maintenance. They are very friendly and welcoming.
