If you've been dying to get into the housing market, you might as well dive in full-force with this enchanting Swiss village that's for sale in Golden, B.C.

A little slice of Canadian history, here you will find "Edelweiss Village," six homes that were built by the Canadian Pacific Railway to house a group of Swiss guides and their families who were hired to bring wealthy tourists into the mountains.
