We are looking for a home exchange in Europe, for about three or four weeks. We would like to invite our daughter and our son-in-law to stay with us at your home. That is why we hope to find a large house or flat. It would be great if your home was near a railway station or bus route, so we could use public transit some time.

A mountain valley home, near Vancouver and the sea

Visit the nature-blessed West Coast of Canada.
North Vancouver is a community between forest-covered mountains, a Pacific Ocean inlet and the City of Vancouver.
Our house is about 200 square metres large. It is a split-level house with 3 levels or floors.
The house includes:
- A living room, a dining room with 6 seats, and a kitchen with a 4-seat table.
- A queen-sized bed in a master bedroom and a private bathroom with a bathtub, shower, sink and toilet.
- A second bedroom with a queen-sized bed.
- A third bedroom with a double bed.
- A second bathroom with a bathtub, shower, sink and toilet.
- A third bathroom, with a sink and toilet only.
- An office with a desk and chair.
- An entertainment room with a large screen TV and library.
- A separate laundry room with a clothes washer and clothes drier.
Trees and shrubs make the large back yard private, with both sunny and shady areas. We grow vegetables, kitchen herbs and flowers in the back yard. In one corner, there's a greenhouse, workshop and art studio.
We also have a large, roof covered patio deck with an outdoor table and 6 chairs. You can cook some meals outside, with a propane-heated barbecue.
Please read the “Neighbourhood” section of our Intervac listing to learn more about our community and transportation links to other great destinations in British Columbia.
