This could be The One!

The offer is in....and accepted....the only thing standing between us and this place are the results of a home inspection, hopefully to occur on Monday...

We were struck immediately by the "right" feeling of this property, even before we stepped inside the house.....nearly 1.5 acres in the country, just ten minutes north of Wheately, along with two barns and shed. The roughly twenty minute scenic country drive to work is more than offset by the very mature trees, privacy, and tranquility of the location. Lots of places for bonfires, gardens, and perhaps a few grape vines eventually...

The house itself is over a hundred years, with lots of character, original wood, and charm. Everything just felt right, with old trees and a rustic house in the solitude of the country, with a conservation area and several national and provincial parks (and Lake Erie!) nearby. Don't want to get too excited yet, but so far so good....

Dining room, with Ceilidh potential!
