Beautiful centennial overlooking the sea!

A dream estate tucked between Gaspé Bay and Forillon National Park that offers numerous possibilities: family home, market gardening and beekeeping, bed and breakfast (the house was once a Gîte du Passant® for 8 years with an exceptional occupancy rate). 

Beautiful country-style house with panoramic views all around. Comfortable, spacious, and bright home with 17 rooms including 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Wood fireplace (Bis ultra) in the living room and wood stove in the kitchen.

The laundry room, a workshop, a storage area for firewood, a large central room with storage cabinets, and another storage room beneath the kitchen are located in the basement (a garden door beneath the porch provides direct access from outside).

Two large porches on the south side. Open deck between the two porches. One of the porches can be converted into a temporary greenhouse by means of removable panels.

Large private lot of about 3.2ha with mature trees, fruit trees, gardens, grapevines, woodland, and trails. Cliff-top lookouts from which you can admire the sea, watch for whales, sneak glimpses of mother seals with their babies in the spring and enjoy fabulous sunsets year-round. Access to the beach is possible via cedar stairs that need some work. Two beautiful isolated beaches at the bottom of the cliff.

New insulated shed with mezzanine. Tiny rustic guest house with porch, located at the edge of the woods, view overlooking the gardens. Henhouse with a large fox- and coyote-proof yard.

This truly exceptional seaside property consists of two lots, 2,732,597 (14,550.1 square meters) on which the century-old house, the former vegetable garden, and the hen house are located, and 6,244,797 (17,982.3 square meters), mostly wooded but where the majority of the gardens, trails, the new shed, and the tiny guest house are located. 

Conditions:

• The sale is made without legal warranty, at the buyer's risk. 
• The former owner of lot 2,732,597 has a pre-emptive right* (right of first refusal) affecting this lot.

*The right of first refusal allows the former owner to purchase Lot 2 732 597 in priority to any other buyer. When the current owner receives an offer to purchase that she wishes to accept, she must notify the former owner who must then:

• Decide to purchase the immovable at the same price offered by the would-be buyer; he then compensates the would-be buyer for the reasonable costs incurred in connection with the promise to purchase, such as inspection costs, and proceeds with the acquisition of the immovable; or
• Decide not to purchase the immovable and the sale takes place with the buyer. The former owner loses his right of first refusal on the immovable.
