And here’s the master bedroom:

The two bedrooms share this bathroom:

The history

The house was built in 1931. About four years ago, the person who owned it at the time gutted the place and renovated it, adding hardwood floors, a central vacuum, and Caesarstone countertops in all the kitchens. In 2015, realtor Andrea Kalmar bought the building.

Major perk

A 180-square-foot balcony framed in exposed brick offers plenty of room for patio furniture and cookout equipment:

Possible deal breaker

There’s no elevator, meaning tenants will have to lug groceries up a few flights of stairs.

By the numbers

• $3,500 per month, plus hydro
• 1,625 square feet
• 2 bedrooms
• 2 bathrooms
• 1 balcony
• 1 gas fireplace
• 1 parking space

    Directions:

    1. Fill a pitcher half full of ice
    2. Pour in just under half the bottle of Pimms (about 300 mls)
    3. Fill the rest of the pitcher with lemonade
    4. Add sliced cucumber, mint,  strawberries and any other fruit you would like
    5. Stir, sip and enjoy!

    Directions:

    1. Fill a beer glass up halfway
    2. Fill the rest with lemonade
    3. Garnish with lemon and enjoy!  

     

    Fruity Ice Tea  

    If you are looking for a refreshing non-alcoholic beverage it can be hard to find a drink that isn’t packed full of sugar and chemicals. This recipe is a healthy alternative to store-bought ice tea.   

    1. Choose your favourite fruit tea (we recommend blueberry or peach as they have a strong flavour)
    2. Brew a tea pot with a few tea bags and let it steep it until cold
    3. Add in desired  fruit to the tea. You can add natural sweeteners like stevia if you would like to add some sweetness. C21 recommendation- sliced strawberries and fresh peaches which both add lots of flavour
    4. Add ice and enjoy!   
  • Mid-year Resolution Review by vahabj

    January was a long time ago and the resolutions that we set for ourselves  have mostly likely been forgotten by now.  Life gets busy and, although you had the best intentions in January, it can be difficult to follow through with your resolutions. A 6-month check-in will help you get back on track and ensure success for the next 6 months. Follow these tips to make the next 6 months your very best.

    Make your goal plan attainable and realistic: Look at what your resolutions were and see what is realistic to achieve in the next 6 months.  Think about the goal you set in the first place, and also why you wanted to accomplish it. When you are reviewing your resolutions ask yourself the following questions:   

    1. What am I trying to achieve?
    2. Why am I trying to achieve this?
    3. What have I done so far?
    4. What should I continue to do?
       

    2. Set monthly milestones: For the next 6 months set a milestone goal for each month and have an incentive for achieving that goal. Write down each milestone so you can clearly see it every day. Having your milestones written out and visible will keep you stay accountable and also give you daily motivation to reach and exceed your resolutions!

    3. Make it a habit: The best way to ensure success even after you’ve achieved your resolutions is to make them a habit. Successful people form long-term habits; they don’t initiate a burst of activity and then burnout. If your resolution was to lose 20 pounds, keep up your healthy eating and exercise routine after you have achieved the goal so you don’t fall back into old habits. By making those small changes a part of your daily routine you will stay on track to not only achieving your goals but making them a lifelong habit.

  • Tips to planning a successf… by vahabj

    One of the best ways to enjoy the summer season is to get outside, share stories around a campfire and sleep outside under the stars. Camping trips should be fun, but they can be stressful and uncomfortable if they aren’t planned properly.  Follow these tips to plan a fun and successful camping trip.

    1. Pack for all different types of weather
      Even if the weather says it will be nothing but sun for the duration of your vacation that could quickly turn and you don’t want to be caught unprepared in the rain. Do a check to make sure you are covered no matter if the temperature dips or spikes while you are away.  Make sure you pack an extra jacket, extra socks, raincoat/boots as well as sunscreen and a hat  just in case.

      C21 camping hack:  Buy a bunch of ponchos from the dollar store. They’re cheap and will keep you dry in a pinch. Plus, they look hilarious! 
       

    2. Bring extra
      One of the best and worst things about camping is that anything can happen, that’s what makes it such an adventure. Pack extra food, water and batteries just in case. You never want to be stranded without food and water. It will allow you to adventure with better peace of mind. 

      C21 camping hack: Bring a bag (or an extra bag) of Doritos to use as emergency fire starters. If all your kindling is wet,  the Doritos will work wonders to get your fire going and you can snack on them while you do it!
       

    3. Get a good night’s sleep
      The idea of sleeping outside under the stars sounds idyllic but the reality can be far from it. If you aren’t properly prepared then you could be in for an uncomfortable and sleepless night. Investing in a good sleeping bag and sleeping mat can make all the difference. Sleeping bags are not one size fits all so make sure you get one that fits you properly. The type of sleeping mat you get will depend on the type of camping you will be doing and the space that is available to you. If the space in the car permits it and you aren’t doing backcountry camping then it might be worth investing in one or two big air mattresses if the whole family will be sleeping in the tent. This will ensure that everyone is comfy and will limit grouchy kids in the morning!

      C21 camping hack:  Use foam floor tiles for a softer, more comfortable tent floor.
       

    4.  Menu planning and prep Hungry campers are unhappy campers! Meal planning and preparation is possibly the most important thing that you can do for your camping trip. If you have reserved a campsite then you will know what utilities are available to you and you can plan accordingly. If are planning a more backcountry trip then you need to bring a stove and have a plan to make a fire. Prep what you can before leaving for your trip– with limited daylight you don’t want to be chopping veggies in the dark. One thing that a lot of campers forget are the cooking essentials such as oil, spices/ seasonings, salt and pepper.
       
    5.  Entertainment Don’t forget to have fun! Bring some books, music and games to play while you’re camping. Some great travel games are bananagrams, cards and UNO.  One of the greatest aspects of camping is seeing your kids engage with nature and be inquisitive with their surroundings.  Play some games that encourage them to learn more about their environment such as a nature scavenger hunt.

      C21 camping hack: A fun game to play at night is glow stick ring toss. Pick up some glow sticks from the dollar store and use a branch as your target. 

  • EASY VEGGIES TO GROW ON YOU… by vahabj

    There is nothing more satisfying than planting some seeds, watching them grow, harvesting the veggies and then eating them for dinner. Farm to table life is not only good for your health but also your wallet and the environment. This idyllic lifestyle might seem like an unrealistic dream for those that live in cities, work a 9-5, have a family or simply don’t have the time to “farm” their food. The good news is there are plenty of veggies that are easy to grow and that don’t require much space.

    Tomatoes
    The great thing about tomatoes is they can be grown on a balcony or in a garden. If this is your first time growing tomatoes we recommend buying starter plants rather than growing them straight from seeds. This will give you a good idea of how much water and sun they need and then the following year you can try growing them from seeds.

    Onions 
    Onions  grow very quickly and are easy to take care of. Plant them in a row and you will be able to harvest some green onions in a couple weeks. There is very little care required for onions, simply plant the bulbs, water and enjoy! Once harvested, onions like to be kept in a cool, dry place.

    Peas
    The best time to grow peas is right now, so here’s how to do it so you can start today! Peas like to be grown upright and on a climber so they can have something to wrap their vines around (a wooden ladder or metal pole would work well). They thrive in cooler weather so it’s best to grow them in the spring rather than the summer, time to get growing!

    Lettuce The difference in taste between store bought lettuce and homegrown is staggering. Homegrown lettuce has a rich, fresh taste that store bought can never compete with. To grow lettuce, simply just sprinkle the seeds into your garden ( or garden box if you don’t have a backyard) and pick the lettuce once it comes up to promote new growth. 

    Basil
    Basil can be grown pretty much anywhere. It not only tastes amazing but it will make your whole house smell heavenly (if you are growing it inside). Basil can be either potted or grown in a garden bed depending on the space available to you. Pluck leaves and use immediately, you can also dry the herb and use it in cooking all year round.

  • The Unexpected Costs of Pet… by vahabj

    “The unconditional love of a pet makes it hard to place a value on a cute little puppy or kitten. But according to a recent RateSupermarket.ca study, the cost of a pet in its first 12 months of is approximately $2,600 for a puppy and $1,900 for a kitten.” https://www.ratesupermarket.ca/blog/the-cost-of-owning-a-pet-in-canada/  

    Get a dog, they said. It will be easy and not that expensive, they said. Just some food, treats, a leash and some shots right? The cost of pet ownership is a sneaky thing, so it’s important to budget and plan ahead for unforeseen expenses.

    Here’s the breakdown of the unexpected costs for your first year of pet ownership:

    Adopting/ Purchasing your pet

    • $500.00 (minimum)– purebread (cat or dog)
    • $85.00- $100.00– adoption (cats)
    • $135.00-$275.00 – adoption (dogs)  

    Training and licencing:  $800.00 (average for a dog)   $400.00 (for a cat)  

    Puppy classes can run anywhere from $100.00- $500.00 depending on the class and duration.

    If you opt for pet insurance, budget approximately $500.00 per year for a puppy, and $357.11 for a kitten.

    Essentials: $1000.00  (dog) $900.00 (cat)

    Leashes, bowls, toys, crates, litter boxes, etc. can really add up. To keep costs low, try to find as much as you can from second hand stores before buying everything new.

    Vaccines: $650.00 approximately (puppy and kittens)

    The preliminary vaccines are very expensive but highly necessary. This cost includes microchips, getting them spayed or neutered and heartworm prevention.

    Injuries/ Illnesses : $200.00-$800.00

    As much as we all hope it never happens, it’s important to consider possible injuries and illnesses. A broken bone can cost a minimum $200.00 to fix it.

    Chewed/ damaged furniture and clothes : $250.00- $500.00

    Cheeky little puppies are very cute but can also be highly destructive. Try to puppy-proof as much of your house as possible before brining the pup home to avoid possible destruction. As much as we prepare, there will be messes and chewed up belongings. Hide all expensive bags and shoes so they will escape the innocent but deadly jaws of your pup.  Oh the joys of pet ownership!
