I am revising my add as my situation has changed. I need someone from early December to the end of January, but will not be definite until at least Sept. I am situated in the east end of Toronto just north of Ashbridges Bay and the lake. Public transit--street car 1 block away, 2 bus lines blocks away, 20 minutes from downtown. My house is a 3 story century house comfortable, but not fancy with 2 useful bedrooms, the master on the second floor and a twin bed on the third. There is a den with TV on the second floor and an office which will not be available for use. One modern full bathroom on second floor Washer, dryer in basement The kitchen is also modern. Parking is on street and if you have a car a parking permit would have to be purchases. There are no animals just houseplants to maintain. Side walk to be cleared of snow. Would prefer a non smoker and someone able to maintain the general upkeep of the premises. Toronto has a host of restaurants, both haute and 'low' cuisine, busy theatre and entertainment. many museums and art galleries. Niagara falls and Buffalo (USA) are just a hour or two drive away. If you are a skier, there are facilities north of the city, car needed for that. House is suitable for a single or a couple. I would prefer at least 2 references and a police check. please note that this has been a revised version of an ad I placed some weeks ago.
