My story began as a small country schoolhouse... and today, I'm simply waiting for someone who wants to write my next chapter.
Built around 1940 in the municipality of L'Avenir, I'm a small home filled with history and character. My past can still be felt in my unique charm, giving me a personality that sets me apart from more conventional properties.
Let's be clear: I'll need a little love and creativity to bring back my full potential. But at $149,000, I represent an interesting opportunity for someone looking to become a homeowner at an affordable price and gradually transform a house into a home that reflects their style.
I offer 2 bedrooms and a laundry room, with a simple layout that can easily be reimagined. I don't have a basement, but rather a crawl space.
Some important improvements have already been completed. My foundation was redone in poured concrete, my roof is metal, and some windows were replaced in 2026. The exterior siding has also been replaced on 2 sides of the property.
And my surroundings deserve some attention.
I sit on a beautiful wooded lot with magnificent views of the rolling hills, in a landscape that gently marks the beginning of the Eastern Townships. A peaceful, natural setting that perfectly complements my character as a former country schoolhouse.
I am currently rented, an important factor to consider depending on your plans for the property.
My true potential lies in what you could make of me. A few renovations, some fresh colours, and a little imagination could completely transform my atmosphere while preserving my history.
I'm not a perfect, move-in-ready home that needs nothing. Instead, I'm an affordable project with character, for someone who wants to gradually invest in a place of their own and shape it according to their tastes.
At $149,000, a former country schoolhouse, a wooded lot, views of the rolling hills, and the opportunity to create a little piece of country living that's truly your own.
A little love, a few projects... and all the potential to become a true little gem in L'Avenir once again.
