With the phenomenal amount of construction going on around here, it struck me, as I was driving around today trying to keep Harry asleep in the car, how amusing some of the sales bullshit surrounding the purchase of these new houses is.
Some actual definitions below:
Gorgeous Ravine Living! (house backs on to a small ditch)
Beautiful Forested Homes! (house backs on to 10 skanky looking trees)
Glorious Private Location! (not adjacent to another subdivision but intersected with a motorway and a major road)
Country Homes! (built on the edge of town. in 6 mths time will be in centre of town)
Airport Noise Warning. My personal favourite vague disclaimer about some possible potential noise from the airport. Planes actually skim the top of the houses as they land at Pearson.
