About this home

Written by Mei L.

A garden suite I renovated in 2023, with the private entrance people always ask for.

  • Your own door off the side path — you never walk through anyone else's space.
  • Radiant floor heating throughout, which matters here from November.
  • Compact kitchen, but a full-size fridge and a real oven.
  • Dogs and cats both welcome; there is a fenced yard you can use.
  • Windows sit above grade, so it takes proper daylight, not basement light.
  • Two blocks to the Main Street corridor and the 3 bus.

Mount Pleasant~CA$2,450 / month, typical one-bedroom

Main Street cafés, restaurants, breweries, older low-rise buildings and newer apartments give Mount Pleasant a more local feel than Downtown. It is especially popular with people who work in tech, design or creative industries and want city access without living inside the central business district.
