One of my guilty pleasures is to browse through MLS.ca and see what sorts of neat abodes exist is the area. Plus, it's an interesting, voyeuristic pastime :-)
I've noticed more than a few for sale signs popping up lately, and was curious as to what the interiors of certain houses look like, and knowing the asking price doesn't hurt either ;-)
Some interesting stats.... all taken in a radius of 25 km from where I live:
So - what do you get for $5,000,000 these days? For $5.2M, you get 2 acres in a "pseudo suburb", but you also get a 15,000 sqft home, a 2,000 sqft *coach house*, and a 2,000 sqft *loft*.
:-)
You also get a theater, a gym, and a basement that reminds you of a hotel lobby.
Wow.
It's a steal.
