cabbage town is very pretty, but the house is really old built. It will require lots of work to maintain the house. Personally I love Banbury and Yorkmills area. my hubby and I need save another 5 years to upgrade ourself to there at least.

Cabbagetown i s in the prime area - within walking distance to raton center, yorkville, theaters, trendy shops & restaurants, and easy access to highway too. I love those old red brick Victorian houses, so much characters. Lot of houses there have been completely gutted and upgraded to current standard. It won't require as much maintaintence as most people think here. Banbury & Yorkmill is very pricy area too. I think if you want to spend 800k - 1 mil on a house, you have lots of choices in toronto - forest hill, riverdale, rosedale, yonge and Eg. Dont worry, i am sure you guys will get there. 此帖于 Oct 28th, 2010 09:27 被 Pucca普卡 编辑。 |

My hubby 's office is walking distance to our home right now. For Yorkmills , only 5 minutes driving distance. so we won't move to central downtown at all. My hubby and I drove around toronto often to check out the neighborhood, every area you mentioned are million plus house. Frankly speaking, I am not sure if i want to be house poor or cut back shopping to live expensive area. Big house also cost more to decorate since I love expensive furniture and decoration, so 900k house would be my top limit. Maybe I never can afford those houses. But I don't really care, million house is never a part of my life goal any way. |

白菜镇当年可是最穷的穷人们的居住地。 多数房子都是一站前后建的,跟维多利亚不沾边。 Montreal山上有不少这样的房子,也是all brick row house,爱德华风格,屋顶没有维多利亚风格那么高大,也简化了不少装饰。 房子虽然老,但因为在山上还是很迷人。长长的台阶走进屋,地板咯吱咯吱想,有很多想不到的小空间,不知道做什么用,还用水暖,看了觉得很亲切。阁楼可以住人,有大天窗,晚上抬头就能看见星星。 |
