Available for September!! (flexible on move in during the month)
I have 1 room, available now in this great 4 br, 2 level house!
Hi there, looking to fill a sublet in a great house on Baldwin st. Ideally looking for a UofT/OCAD/Ryerson student, undergrad or masters program that is looking for a place close to campus and to Kensington market, or exchange student or someone new to Toronto and working downtown.
Person will be living with me, and one of my brothers, we're late 20's early 30s. The way the place is laid out is really comfortable, I've set it up like my family home as I've been here a long time. Great atmosphere, really laid back, combo of athletes, healthies, business, finance, tech stuffs, who enjoy gaming from time to time, nba basketball, hitting the gym, and relaxing watching movies in the evenings.
The place has tons of space and large private rooms. The rooms themselves tend to be bigger than most studio and 1br apartments! (ie, you'll have space for desk, chairs, sofa, mini living room of your own if you want)
Layout is two floors, two bathrooms, a large kitchen and a nice living room/hang out area. We have a big screen tv for movies etc. In the past we've always had a mix of genders and roommates and it has always worked very well on either 3mth-12 month sublet. Our current roommate who is moving out is a robotics engineer and planned to stay a few months and has been here 4.5 years! And the 2nd bedroom she stayed for 1.5 years :)
You really can't beat the location, especially during the Summer, for groceries, convenience to Kensington market, the Spadina, College, and Dundas Streetcars, TTC, LCBO, Littly Italy, schools, downtown nightlife on King West. Price is great too and cant really be beat for what you get, and includes all utilities and internet, month to month, and semi/fully furnished. (we can discuss details depending on length of stay)
Ideal candidate(s); you're studious, young, busy and independent, maybe work out or do yoga or something cool and active. There is also potential that another room (my room) becomes available for sublet in the future if I travel for work, which means we could move someone else in or someone you know potentially, (or you).
Rent may be negotiable depending on length of stay, but the perks are it’s Month to month, all utilities and internet and weekly/biweekly cleaning included!
