I've been surfing Cape Breton real estate sites for years. I've been thinking a lot about just going for it and getting a summer place (not discussing the fact that I'm currently broke and don't even own a winter place).
What's even more incredible is that the house I linked to? Is in Baddeck, in the heart of Touristland, NS, and it's still that cheap. The houses in Sydney and places that aren't so rural and/or picturesque (me, I think it's all beautiful, but that's me) are even cheaper, liek, dirt cheap. It's the terrible economy, unfortunately. *shakes fist at Jim Flaherty, et. al*
These pictures are gorgeous. I've never been to PEI, but it's definitely on the list. Cape Breton, OTOH. I've been there only twice, and both times in the winter, but y'know how one of their slogans is "Home of my heart"? Um, they wrote that for me. :) I'm hoping to get up down there in September. Dunno what I'll do when I get there, but I'll figure something out.
