Luxury Apartment |Byward Market| Queen & Sofa Bed
Over-looking our private courtyard are two open-concept rental spaces. Bright and cozy with a charming mix of modern and antique decor, they can be rented individually or together to accommodate a larger group. The front of the building houses Parlour, our AVEDA Concept Hair Salon. This listing is for Suite #4, a cozy ground floor open-concept apartment. Warm and welcoming, it has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The compact yet fully loaded kitchen includes a dishwasher and has all the basic dishes & utensils for creating meals. The pull-out couch in the living room opens up to make a queen sized bed. Laundry machines are tucked away in one of the closets in the bedroom space. A wall of windows separates the living area and bedroom space, equipped with a curtain for privacy. Customizable rolling blinds in the living area can be adjusted for your comfort and privacy. You will have full private access to Suite # 4 with a 24hr keybox entry. The suite overlooks our private courtyard which is occasionally shared with other guests. I do not live on the property but can easily be found at the front of the building, working in the salon from Wednesday to Saturday. Feel free to contact me at anytime during your stay, my wife Jocelyne and I will be happy to help. The ByWard Market is a vibrant area with many great shops, seasonal patios, and restaurants. Local fruit and vegetable vendors set up all summer long, and during the winter season, skate down the Rideau Canal, the world's largest skating rink. There is a bus stop right around the corner, servicing local bus lines. Two of the major Public Transportation hubs, Rideau Street and Mackenzie King are less than a 10 minute walk away. The scenic cycling path is accessible from Major's Hill Park, a 5 minute walk away. Parking lots are available at all four corners of our location. The entrance to the courtyard & suites is located on the side of the building. During the salon's business hours, guests are welcome to access the courtyard by walking through the salon.
