Panoramica generale

We feel so blessed to be able to live in beautiful Prince Edward Island. We live in a large home that has it's 100th birthday this coming year. Much of the original woodworking and flooring has been preserved and gives the house antique charm. I have tried to furnish our home with antiques that keep with the feel of the home, while still having the modern conveniences. We rent half of our home out as a suite on a weekly basis in the July and August, but wanted to offer it as a home swap in the months of June and September. June is a beautiful month in PEI when all of the purple and pink blossoms of the lupins emerge in the ditches and fields all across the island. The freshly planted red dirt fields contrast against the bright green trees and the brilliant ocean. Our home is 5-10 minutes from numerous world class beaches, which are still a little cool for jumping into in June, but still great for a beach walk or playing in the sand. September is another beautiful month on the island, as the weather generally stays fairly warm and there are still a few hot days for jumping into the ocean. We have the warmest ocean waters north of the Carolina's because of the protected position of the island. The end of September also brings the change of the fall leaves and the bounteous harvest from the fields.

Lo spazio

We are offering non simultaneous swaps of our home for the months of June and September, trading preferably for the months of January to March. Winter is very snowy and cold here and many of the restaurants and tourism establishment are closed, so June and September are far better months to come. We would be offering our suite on one half of the house, while we live on the other half with our 5 kids. The home is easily split in half, by closing off and locking specific doors. It is not sound proof, but allows for lots of privacy and worked out very well last year, even with two families living in the home. The bonus is that you have instant friends next door! As you enter the suite by your own private door, you are admitted into a quaint front entrance. To the right is a door opening up to a large sitting room with big screen TV and one of the full bathrooms. Currently there is only a small kitchenette provided, with microwave, toaster, small fridge, kettle and hot plate, but we are planning to add in a more substantial kitchen area with sink, more cooking surfaces and appliances to make preparing meals that much easier. The suite offers 3 bedrooms upstairs, 2 with queen beds and 1 with 2 twins. There is a sitting area off the main bedroom and another full bathroom up stairs. The bathrooms are dated, but clean and functional. Lots of towels available and extra bedding as needed. We are also offering simultaneous swaps when that works better for both parties during the months of May/June and September/October. During a simultaneous swap the entire house would be available with a new fully renovated large kitchen, two more bedrooms, 5 more beds, a 3rd bathroom, laundry facilities, and a large music room with antique tin ceiling. The pictures on the site do not reflect the entire house, just the half house suite. I can send more pictures with further inquiry.

Accesso ospite

You would have access to the suite door through an electronic pin pad for easy access. You would also have access to the 4 acres of land surrounding us, including a fire pit, garden and forested area. We have many beautiful trees that provide a nice protected, private space. We also often have chickens, cats and a bunny running around the yard. As there is not laundry on both sides of the house, you would have access to the washer and dryer on our side of the house when mutually arranged.

Quartiere

Our neighbours are farms and we enjoy walks down the country roads to see horses, fields and the ocean. You can enjoy walks down "memory lane" which happens to be right next to our house. There are a number of good restaurants tucked in various spots minutes from the house and Kensington and Summerside offer more still, 10 and 25 minutes from our house respectively. The famous Anne of Green Gables house in about 20 minutes away with many other attractions near by. The beaches, my personal favourite are a 5-10 minute drive and I will share my favourites with you! We can share other tidbits like good places for cliff jumping, kayaking and an island tradition the "ceilidh". Defined as a sottish or Irish kitchen party, these events are nightly throughout the island from June through October and are full of Celtic and traditional music and step dancing. Never a shortage of things to do on this island in the warmer months!!

Andare in giro

We are not close to any public transit, so you would need a car. Our main grocery shopping is about 25 minutes away in Summerside, but there is also a smaller town, Kensington, with groceries about 10 minutes away. You can also access the confederation trail which is great for biking and walking in Kensington. We are about 45 minutes away from the airport in Charlottetown.
