Leading up the asphalt driveway your first impression will be the majestic stone house with metal roof, covered front porch and newly constructed cedar sun-deck. To your left is a garage building with a guest studio and bathroom attached. Further away you will see the attractive fenced gardens where you can produce all of your own vegetables, fruits and flowers each summer. A charming orchard, a greenhouse and a small barn with chicken coop attached set the tone for this very special property.
Stretching away to your left are the 50+ acres of mixed-wood forest covered with kilometres of trails to play on year-round. Many large boulders also dot the expansive property creating a relaxing landscape (and you can even practice bouldering or rock climbing). There is a charming sugar shack with all the tubes attached to the maple trees tucked away waiting for you to make your own maple syrup each year.
The colours in autumn are simply breathtaking and at certain vantage points you can enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding mountains.
Become self-sufficient or live the ideal country life on this private domain where privacy and tranquillity is assured, yet only an hour from Montreal.
Approaching the house you will be impressed with the quality of the materials used including the stone exterior walls, a metal roof and south-facing concrete terrace.
The large hall greets you upon entering. This in turn leads to an open concept living/dining/kitchen area with vaulted ceilings, red pine flooring, beams and window frames as well as an attractive stone fireplace. The focal point of the kitchen is the massive mahogany central island. The walk-in pantry will be welcomed by those who love to cook. A door leads to the expansive south-facing terrace with stairs descending to the gardens.
Also on this floor is the very large sun-room, with windows on three sides, overlooking the mature gardens. A home office, two bedrooms and a bathroom with laundry facilities complete the main level.
Ascending the stairs, you will find three bedrooms, including the master bedroom and a bathroom with a jacuzzi bath. The mezzanine, overlooking the living area below, can serve as a workout, TV, reading, sitting or music den as well as an office space.
In the basement you will discover a huge room offering many options. There is a wood stove which can provide an excellent heat source for the winter using wood taken from fallen or dead trees on the property. Attached to the basement, under the sun-room is a bright studio/workshop.
The outhouses need some love but the huge potential is waiting for you to explore.
