Today my mom was nice enough to drive me downtown, so we drove by the place! Sounds a bit stalkerish, but it's a nice looking house. You can't tell from the listing pictures, but there are a couple of deer in the front bay window, taxidermied I assume. Kinda weird but they were definitely there! laugh.gif

Wonder if those were the deer from "The Biggest Fans" video??

OK, I pulled up the mortgage calculator and at 8% for 30 years with no down payment, it's $41,301.28 a month.

There's 6,982 members of TRF. If we all paid $6/month, it's ours!!! And we'd live right down from Geddy.

Honestly, if I had all this money and some more to keep me living inside this house... I'd buy it biggrin.gif

 

It would be a great opportunity to meet Alex too, right? drool1.gif

 

But...

 

let's be realistic...

 

*no cash* not even to go from a town to another sad.gif

Sorry, but their taste is pretty awful.

I'm not boasting, but my house is almost the same size (though it didn't cost anywhere near that amount!) and is an early victorian former manse.

It looks like they have striven for a more period look but have got it completely wrong.

The hallway, bathroom and kittchen are ok at a stretch, but the lounge areas are unforgiveable.

I am a great fan of georgian and Victorian styles, but they are way off the beam here

It all just comes across as tasteless and chintzy I'm afraid

 

You're not boasting, but you have a house, sorry early Victorian manse the size of a rock star's mansion. And you're a better interior decorator. Okay. tongue.gif

I remember seeing this when it first came out. I don't remember seeing seeing a pic of the outside ofthe house but there were several the inside. Someone asked if it sold and the new owners have it up for sale and judging from the pic I saw a few uears ago I would say that is the case. The interior of the house is not the same as when it originally listed as AL house for sale.

I don't want to boast either but I've got a dozen houses ranging between 1-4 million bones each and they all look 10 times better than that old Lifeson joint. It does help that I hired THE best interior decorator in the northern hemisphere though. But, as I said, I don't want to boast. tongue.gif
