Two Words: Open Space
For many of us, one of the most appealing aspects – and selling points – of living in the North Bay is the sheer amount of open space that surrounds us. (The number of real estate ads that boast a property is “adjacent to open space,” or “backs to open space” or “is steps from open space” is a testament to that.) However, it’s not just the lack of structures that make the North Bay so special, it’s the spectacular beauty of the varied landscapes, from the smooth rolling hills to the lush forests to the serene bay views to the majestic coastline. What’s more is the ability to enjoy all this beauty in such a variety of ways: hiking, biking, riding (horses, motorcycles, scooters), sailing, gliding, and even driving.
