IDEALLY LOCATED BY THE INTERSTATE BRIDGE
Share a townhouse centrally-located in an idyllic setting, with public transportation at the door and shopping, downtown Vancouver, Clark College, and many amenities within walking distance. . . the living quarters include a bedroom and adjacent full bath for you (your housemate has the 2nd bedroom and bath); washer/dryer upstairs; high ceilings, both floors; expansive front porch and rear patio; and ample common areas (kitchen, dining and living). Townhouse is fully furnished EXCEPT for the bedroom; and deposit is in place (housemate has been residing here for several years). Cleaning chores to be shared!
Cost of lease, all utilities, cable and WIFI is approximately $1600 per month. . . but your share could be subsidized somewhat in exchange for some cooking/cleaning services or even editing services if you have the academic background (your housemate is a writer). Your cost: $500-$750 range.
Other: Prefer no pets but, if an otherwise great compatibility exists, an exception might be made -- it would require, however, a pet deposit. Housemate offer is extended to intellectually and emotionally-mature female in good health; someone with a reasonable education-culture capable of carrying a conversation; a person financially-solvent, AND a spotless [criminal] background. Non-smoker (inside or outside).
Your host-housemate: a scholarly, mature gentleman with a successful and long professional background in the community now dedicating the third stage of his life to writing.
If interested, please reply in an EXTENSIVE manner stating your preferences. . . and describing yourself. If you are in a hurry "to rent a place," your needs and mine are probably incompatible, since my search is for congeniality. . . and finding whether it might exist requires more than just a casual meeting.
