Welcome to your new rental in the quiet, mature, and colorful neighborhood of Belgravia!
The Space:
9 foot ceilings throughout. 2 bedrooms where one wall in each is made entirely of large windows. If only 1 tenant, the second bedroom could be used as a den. There is one full bathroom (including bath tub with showerhead) next to both rooms. The larger bedroom gets lots of natural sunlight as it opens up to a beautiful corner balcony with views of all the surrounding trees, south and west. The spacious open concept living room and kitchen feel like a tree house as the north wall is mostly large windows looking at a treeline.
The building is very quiet as it is a concrete and steel construction, unit is on the top (fourth) floor in the NW corner, and it is full of students and professionals. We have never heard loud noises in our 5 years of living here.
Only occupants were wife and myself, two professionals who have already moved out because we graduated from medicine and law at the U of A.
Bike storage room. Storage lockers are available, 5 on the main floor, 3.5’ x 3.5’ x 7’. Parcel lockers also available
Premium Features:
Euro-inspired open-concept kitchen: modern and sturdy white cabinetry, subway tile backsplash, quartz countertops, a 30" induction cooktop, built-in oven, and an over-the-range microwave. Bathroom similarly has quarts counters.
Geothermal heating and cooling: an eco-friendly technology with no problems or maintenance in our 5 years here. Entire unit quickly and quietly heats up or cools down to the desired temperature.
Renovated corner top-floor balcony: see above for description. The flooring was redone this winter to be a soft comfy tile that dries quickly. It is also sloped properly to prevent pooling in the rain.
Huge roof-top patio: with nearly 360-degree view including the trees that line the top of the river valley. There is also a communal BBQ for everyone to use, though it is usually not busy up there.
Unbeatable Location:
1 block to the McKernan/Belgravia LRT station. About 10 minute ride to go north to downtown or to Southgate Mall.
Across the street from the tastiest pastries and coffee at Mood Cafe, and the delicious Belgravia Hub restaurant with an outdoor patio.
10 minute walk to the U of A campus and hospital, 3 parks/playgrounds, and the river valley to the west, including Keillor Point (also called "End of the World) which has one of the nicest views of the river in the city.
15 minute walk to Whyte Avenue (over 600 stores & services).
Lease Terms:
1 year lease.
Rent is inclusive of gas, heating, water, garbage removal, landscaping. The roof has numerous solar panels that help minimize the electricity cost in the summer months. Telus high-speed fiber optic internet (device is already in the condo) can be added for $90 per month, or arranged on your own. Telus TV including Amazon Prime streaming can be added for an additional $10 per month.
We are looking for 1-2 quiet people, preferably students.
No smoking or pets please, since we recently repainted some scratched baseboards and walls. The unit now looks almost brand new.
