Ground Floor Suite - Bottom half of a house - 1100 sq/ft : Power, Water, WIFI Included. Fully independent suite with three bedroom, one bath with in-suite laundry near Country Grocer, Cowichan District Hospital and Sherman soccer fields. Fully renovated June 2024: New practically everything: flooring, soundproofing, appliances, paint, doors, windows. Its basically brand new. I though my parents were going to be living in the space, and renovated it accordingly, but then we had a baby and that idea changed. Large open-concept kitchen/dining/living room. The kitchen and all appliances are brand new as of June 2024 - still has the stickers from the store. New heat pump ensures the space stays cool in the summer (AC) and warm in the winter - with baseboard backup in every room if the heat pump fails. Large front entryway/laundry room is a great place for kids to shed their muddy gear before coming into the main living area, or could potentially be used as a small office. Two large bedrooms with oversized closets, and a third smaller bedroom with both a closet and built in storage. Rent is $2200 + $300 utilities = $2500. utilities included (water, hydro, internet, heating/AC). Suite is on the lower level of a house with a separate upper suite and tenant family living upstairs (nice folks, family of three - same with the next door neighbors, family of three). The yard is backing onto a ravine full of forest and very quiet and surrounded by greenery. Green thumbs are welcome to use one of the garden plots for veggies, flowers or both. Shared yard and patio space with upstairs tenants gets tons of afternoon and evening sun. Parking for one vehicle - otherwise on the street. No cats. Sorry. Possible single smaller mature dog, but would have to be negotiated.
