Fireplaces are sublime. Everyone should heat with wood. When trees are cut from a properly managed woodlot, wood is a very environmentally friendly source of fuel. Firewood is renewable and readily available. It has a low relative carbon footprint because wood smoke releases the same amount of carbon that would be released by the natural decomposition of the tree if it fell in the forest. Plus it smells great.

Its a beautifully renovated house, but it is very claustrophobic. The bathrooms are tiny.

It will not sell at that price. Sale prices for townhouses may have been up as of the last reporting quarter (Q408) but the market has deteriorated so much in the last month that nothing is selling now without a 10% drop below asking price, at least. Prospective buyers will not make an offer now until they smell blood in the water.
