There is an elevator. The neighborhood is elegant and relaxed. The location is one of the best in the city, on a charming street, a few blocks from Saint-German des Pres and Saint-Sulpice, with easy access to three different subway lines and at least a dozen buses.

The apartment has a good stereo and television and an Internet and wireless connection. There are two bedrooms on one side of the entry hall, and, on the other side of the hall, a double living room, the back part of which can be used either as a sitting area or as a sleeping alcove. The hall can be closed off from either side. The toilet is off the hall and so accessible from either side. The arrangement is especially practical for families with children. (See floor plan below.)

There are schools and underground parking in the neighborhood. For rent by month, semester or year, depending on availability. Contact Andrew Feenberg at: feenberg@sfu.ca or call 604-218-6047..
