How far is too far?

My husband and I found a great house in Ridgefield! If you've read earlier posts, you may have noticed that we've been spending some time up there looking for homes. We found a cute little 40's Cape Cod half a mile from 'downtown' Ridgefield and blocks from the Ridgefield Garden Club located in Ballard Park. The price is still shocking but the location is nice and it is just shy of an acre. The downside? It is 15 minutes to the train station and an hour fourty to Grand Central Station. I've asked Paul time and again to make sure that this is something he is willing to sacrifice until he can find work in this area. He says he is but still, that commute sucks even if he is only going in 2-3 times per week and his office is in Times Square which is an easy 10 minute walk from Grand Central. It is ultimately up to him and so we are moving forward on this cute little house in the middle of the street. To be continued...
