Me: I am retired and looking for adventure! There are no pets but as I am away for an extended period I would be happy to share my home and know it is being well looked after in my absence. And it doesn't hurt to have the expenses covered!
You: Are a non-smoking, mature house sitter looking for your own adventure in my neck of the woods at low cost to you. Want to get away from those prairie winters? In transition and need a winter home? Considering retiring to the Okanagan but want to try before you buy?
Come to Penticton and enjoy all we have to offer. Biking and golfing in late fall and early spring, wine tours year round, active seniors centre, new community centre with gym and pool, SOEC events throughout the year. Local restaurants, Landmark movie theatre, local live theatre and live entertainment venues.
The house is walking distance to Lake Okanagan, Downtown and the SOEC. Built in the 1930's, the house has a lot of original charm and has been very well maintained over the years. The sunny porch is one of my favorite spots. Back porch addition makes the perfect main floor laundry room. The step saver kitchen has new appliances and dining room has grandma's antique dining set which suits the era of the house. Hardwood floors throughout, easy care.
Bonus exercise room out back by the pool (sorry, closed in the winter months) with an additional bathroom, infrared sauna, free weights and elyptical exercise machine. The day bed and big bright windows make the perfect reading spot on a winter day!
Have a problem, no problem! My 3 adult sons live in the area and will be available to complete any repairs required in my absence.
