Just in case you needed one more reason to buy a home in Kingston Ontario . . .
Kingston came in first place in Amazon's 2012 contest
The Most Romantic City in Canada !!
I was born and raised in Kingston so this comes as no surprise to me. I now live just a few minutes outside the City, in the Town of Gananoque which is equally (or greater) romantic but this contest was limited to Cities in excess of 80,000 people. (we have 5200 if we're lucky)
The fun part is both places are equally gorgeous, both situated on water, Lake Ontario and the St Lawrence River respectively. Both are filled with fantastic architecture and amazing history (think War of 1812) (think home of Canada's first Prime Minister). You can easily be within 20 minutes of hospitals, university, college, theatre, world class boating, (Kingston being the fresh water sailing capital of the world - 1976 Summer Olympics) the military base CFB Kingston, and wonderful employment opportunities abound; pretty much a self-sustaining community.
We still have a healthy and thriving housing market that has something for everyone; first time buyers, investors, families, downsizers, vacation property and of course, the multi-million $ luxury market.
I suggest you make a visit to our fantastic ROMANTIC community and see for yourself. Until you can physically get here, take a look at this wonderful website for more information and gorgeous photos
And when you do get here, get in contact with me and allow me the honour of introducing you to your next home!
Congratulations Kingston on being named Canada's Most Romantic City!
