In the middle of a brisk walk to return a dvd to our favourite video store up on Kingston Road, we are striding along on a street we haven't walked before when I look up to see the most adorable little brick cottage complete with Georgian columns flanking the front door and a rather truncated octoganal "turret" which looks like it would provide an excellent spot to curl up with a book or gaze out into the trees and daydream. I'm completely green with envy - if only I could airlift it out to Halifax or a larger estate lot and set up house in this little gem!
