Quiet home with 76 acres of land to roam on

A short 1 hr. car ride from Mtl will bring you to the picturesque Eastern Townships. This beautiful little century home is located on 76 acres with a forest and meandering streams. The inground swimming pool is open from June till September (it's not heated). The house was newly renovated in 2018, with a bright, clean and comfy feel to it, fully equipped kitchen, veranda, BBQ, and a closed-in campfire are quite the treat in the summertime. Trails from the backyard will take you into the woods. A very quiet area where you can take off on a long bike ride, walk, or simply take it easy and lounge in the pool area. The winter season offers cross-country skiing and snowshoeing right from the back porch. A bright open style kitchen and living room with wood stove (wood is provided at no extra cost). A large bedroom with a comfortable mattress and private bathroom (shower is only accessible from this master bedroom) and a powder room in the main living area. The second bedroom is also large and is on the upper floor (loft style, steep stairs). ***Please note that our daughter lives here (she vacates the premises when rented). That said, please be assured that the entire home is 100% yours, shelves are cleared and available for you in the fridge and freezer. In the master bedroom, you’ll find a closet and several shelves for your clothes. The entire home is for you and no one else is there but you!!! We will greet you and show you around.
