AGENT: Peter Anderson, Re/Max Realty Specialists Inc.

THE PLACE: A five-bedroom home located on a pie-shaped lot in Oakville with a pool and plenty of trees.
BRAGGING RIGHTS: The master bedroom has a bright walk-in closet and expansive windows to the backyard, and did we mention the oversized tub with golden faucets right in the bedroom? No need to trek to Niagara Falls for a honeymoon suite.

POSSIBLE DEAL BREAKER: Your money definitely goes further in the suburbs, but those currently living and working in Toronto proper may find it tough to adjust to a daily commute. Better buy that Presto card now.
