Location, Location, Location

Yesterday we looked at 3 homes to rent:

1) Hope Street
1 1/2 blocks from the beach. Large, modern, bright, open home.  Very nice outdoor space with a big back yard and a hot tub???  Advertised as 4 large bedroom when in fact it was 3 large bedroom and 1 small study.  Close to the school.  Did I mention it's 1 1/2 blocks from the beach?





2) Sandover Drive
Very nice neighbourhood and across the street from a golf course.  Salt water pool.  4 bedrooms.  The home itself looks like someone drank a huge bottle of the late 1970's and threw up everywhere.  Very dark inside and not very good space.  I was afraid to touch anything and couldn't wait to get out.  Brand new listing so no pictures available.

3) Jodrell Road
Not as nice a neighbourhood and a little newer so it didn't have many trees in the area, although, it was very close to a pond and path area.  Well maintained.  4 bedroom.  Fairly modern.  A little small inside.  Almost no outdoor space however.


Because we are being evicted from our current accomodation by this Saturday we are forced to make a choice.  So, #2 is out because it's a #2.  That leaves 1 & 3.  We decided to put in an offer for...drum roll... #1 Hope Street!  We will use the study as a 4th bedroom, otherwise the house is very good.  We're going to put in a bit of cheeky offer because it was misadvertised.  We should see within the next two days.
