Cambridge, Here We Come!
We not only sold our house, but two days later bought a new one. During those two days, we looked at about ten houses and settled on one that was a bit more expensive than we originally hoped to pay and a little bit further from our daughters house. It will still be walking distance if I want a brisk 45 minute walk, but only 5 minutes by car.
The house is a raised bungalow with three small bedrooms, a finished basement, and nice sized living and dining rooms. Plus a nice little fenced-in yard for my grandchildren to play. All this for the price of a semi in Toronto. At this rate, we might be mortgage free by the time we are ready for an old age home.
For those of you who are not familiar with Cambridge, it is between Guelph and Kitchener, just one short hour from Toronto. Unless of course the traffic in Mississauga is bad, then more like two long hours.
