Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
We live on a cul-de-sac with very friendly neighbours. Our home is on a one acre lot with a beautiful view of the ocean, valley and mountains in the distance. We have lots of nature right outside the door, with deer often here eating our plants or sleeping in the yard. You will need a car to get around. The nearby Town of Sidney has all you need (groceries, pharmacy, medical clinic etc.).
