Love Victoria, this house such a great example of the city's charm. Just lovely. Congrat's on being today's featured Daily Drop member. Looks like you've had an interesting career "before" real estate.

Hi Debb - Thank you for 2 things ... your comment on my listing, and that I'm featured on Daily Drop. I didn't know what Daily Drop was until I read your comment, so now I've subscribed to it. And yes, I did have an interesting career before real estate - now I have to 'make-do' with a more-or-less "oldtimers" hockey game each week.

Cheers!
