Our Life Together

Residence
|
We live in a comfortable 3 bedroom home with a cosy finished basement, and a large, private back yard, surrounded by mature trees, which is the perfect place where friends and family get together to relax and play. |

Location
|
Toronto, ON |
|
Neighborhood
|
We live in Don Mills, a friendly, family-oriented, diverse neighbourhood with lots of parks, cycling paths, schools, and libraries. Our house is near the end of a long, tree-lined street surrounded by ravines and a golf course. We love living in a place where rabbits and deer can be found only a short walk from our front door, while at the same time we're only a few minutes away by car from the subway or even downtown. We really feel like we live in the country in the heart of the city. |

Our Favorite Things
to do Together |
We like to make the most of any time we spend together whether it's relaxing and reading the paper on a Saturday morning, running our weekend errands, working on the house, going on road trips, travelling the world, getting together with friends and family, or just sharing a quiet dinner after a long day. |
