About this apartment rental

A comfortable, pet-friendly St. John's home base just 8 minutes from downtown. This clean, well-equipped 1BR lower-level apartment sleeps up to 3 (2 adults + 1 child), with a full kitchen, laundry and private entrance. The living area sits above grade, while the bedroom is more below grade. Exterior steps lead to the entrance, and as this is part of a family home, you may hear normal household activity from above.

We respect your privacy and leave you to enjoy the apartment, but our team is available throughout your stay if you need us.

Reach out anytime through the booking platform with questions about the property, assistance during your stay, or recommendations for exploring St. John's and the surrounding area. We're local, responsive and happy to help.

Harding House is a convenient home base for exploring St. John's and the surrounding area. You're about an 8-minute drive from downtown, with easy access to shopping, groceries, restaurants and everyday essentials.

The location also makes it easy to get out and explore. Signal Hill, Cape Spear, Petty Harbour and other St. John's-area highlights are all within an easy drive, while nearby road connections make day trips beyond the city straightforward.

For those travelling with a dog—or simply looking to get outside—there are parks, walking routes and trails in the surrounding area. Bowring Park is a wonderful park for walking and summer activities with extensive river trails. (It is only a 4 min drive from the house)

It's a practical location for guests who want to experience St. John's without needing to stay directly downtown.

You'll have private access to the entire 1-bedroom apartment, including the fully equipped kitchen, living area with TV and futon, queen bedroom, full bathroom and in-unit laundry.

The apartment has its own private entrance, so you can come and go as you please throughout your stay.

Parking: One vehicle can park in the driveway on the right-hand side when facing the property. If you're travelling with more than one vehicle, additional parking is available on the street.

The futon provides additional sleeping space for one child, making the apartment best suited for up to 2 adults and 1 child.

Harding House is a clean, comfortable and well-equipped 1-bedroom lower-level apartment, conveniently located about 8 minutes from downtown St. John's. It's an easy home base for a couple, solo traveller, or 2 adults travelling with 1 child—and dogs are welcome too.

The apartment has a private entrance and a bright, above-grade living and kitchen area at the front of the home. Settle into the living room with Smart TV and futon, or make yourself at home in the fully equipped kitchen—something our guests particularly appreciate for longer stays.

The bedroom, located on the more below-grade side of the apartment, features a queen bed. There's also a full bathroom with bathtub and in-unit washer and dryer.

About the Apartment

This is a private lower-level apartment within an occupied family home. From the driveway, guests walk down a set of exterior stairs to reach the private entrance.

As this is part of an occupied home, you may hear normal household activity from above, including footsteps and morning activity. We share this upfront so you can decide whether the space is the right fit for your stay.

This unit provided what we needed. Bed, bath, kitchen, laundry and living room. It’s quite comfortable. For us it was the perfect place to stay while touring this side of Newfoundland. It is a basement apartment so not the best if mobility issues are a concern as there are outside stairs to get to the unit.

I had a few issues and the property owner was right on top of it
10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
Everything was lovely, clean and well-cared for. It would be helpful to show a photo of the couch folded out flat so potential guests can see that it's not a typical pull out full bed but a couch that flattens out which may not be suitable for some people. My daughter and I loved it and appreciated doing a load of laundry! Thanks!

Young family living upstairs so there were very early morning rises and some later night noises. Within 10-20 minutes of anything you want to visit as a tourist. Quiet neighbourhood.
