2 Bedrooms

Located in La Malbaie, in the heart of scenic Charlevoix, this nearly 10-acre property offers a lifestyle perfectly in tune with nature. The wooded, fully fenced lot is reached by a private driveway leading to a large natural lake with dock and pavilion -- ideal for summer relaxation and trout fishing.
The main residence, built in 1994, is a bright single-storey home of 1 298 sq ft. The cozy living room with wood stove opens to a dining area and kitchen with generous counters and abundant windows. Two comfortable bedrooms, a sunroom with patio doors to the terrace, and a full bathroom with washer/dryer hookups complete the layout. Interior finish work remains to be completed -- a great opportunity to design it exactly as you wish.
Outbuildings include a 35 x 40 ft detached garage, a 12 x 12 ft guest cottage, a 20 x 24 ft chicken coop, and landscaped tiered gardens producing organic fruits and vegetables. Flat open land provides space for further cultivation, greenhouse installation, or solar panels.
Zoning (residential, agricultural, forestry, industrial, recreational) allows for numerous uses -- hobby farm, eco-tourism retreat, artisanal workshop, or private residence focused on self-sufficiency. The cul-de-sac location ensures total privacy with no rear neighbors, midway between Baie-Saint-Paul and La Malbaie, close to golf, ski slopes, and national parks.
Utilities include an artesian well and septic system with leaching field; heating is electric and wood for year-round comfort and independence. The aggregate-and-vinyl exterior blends beautifully with the landscape, complemented by an asphalt-shingle roof.
A rare opportunity in Charlevoix for those seeking harmony between modern living and autonomy. Everything is in place to live sustainably -- grow your food, harvest your wood, and enjoy the peace of nature from your own lakeside retreat.
