Imagine a peaceful morning, where the first rays of sunlight filter through a dense forest of conifers, gently illuminating a vast 250,000-square-foot lot, bordered by the soothing flow of the Rivière Rouge. The only sound piercing the silence is the soft murmur of the water--a timeless invitation to immerse yourself in the grandeur of nature. Just 1 hour and 45 minutes from Montreal, this property is a true haven of peace--a retreat far from the chaos of daily life and a unique opportunity for any visionary investor.
This single-story home, built in 2012, blends seamlessly into its natural surroundings. From the moment you step through the door, a warm and welcoming ambiance wraps around you, accentuated by a cathedral ceiling. The living room, bathed in natural light through its large windows, is anchored by a stunning wood stove--the perfect spot for unforgettable winter evenings. The wood floors bring a rustic touch, while the open-concept layout harmoniously connects the modern kitchen and dining area, where meals shared with family or friends take place against the ever-present backdrop of nature visible through every window.
The charm continues downstairs. A spacious family room offers a versatile space, ideal for entertainment or relaxation after a day of outdoor activities. A second bedroom with its own half-bathroom transforms the lower level into a private retreat for your guests.
This property is not only visually captivating--it's also an investment treasure. The massive lot can be subdivided into two large parcels, offering the possibility to build a second home or sell a distinct lot to maximize your returns. The growing demand for short-term rentals, with a potential for gross annual revenues exceeding $75,000, adds immediate value to this unique opportunity.
Each season transforms this location into a living masterpiece. In summer, outdoor activities abound: swimming, fishing, kayaking, or simple strolls along the Rivière Rouge. In winter, the region becomes a snowy paradise, attracting enthusiasts of snowshoeing, ATV rides, snowmobiling, and winter sports. Its strategic location, combining tranquility with proximity to essential services, makes it a sought-after destination for both tenants and owners.
