Oasis of peace surrounded by nature 10 minutes from Shawinigan!

Located in the forest 1 km from Grandes-Piles, the jewel of St-Maurice, the 57,000 sq.ft property includes: a woodland, a pond, a stream and a house (24'x35') with 4 galleries (900 sq.ft.) and a garage (500 sq.ft.). That is 2,800 sq.ft. of covered space

. In the

Quebec style of yesteryear, the house is at the top of a plateau that isolates its neighbors. On 360 degrees, you can only see the forest. Located at the end of a cul-de-sac, the property is in itself a small wooded estate, which offers tranquility and direct access to an exceptional natural setting. Inspired by the built heritage of the 19th century, the house fits well into this environment and gives the impression of living in a chalet. In short, the winning formula: a cottage in the woods 1 km from the St-Maurice River

.

Its cathedral roof, its huge beams and its large open areas offer a bright and warm living environment. This concept optimizes space and gives a surprising effect of size. With 25 openings, the 7-room house, 4 of which are huge (living room, dining room-kitchen and 2 bedrooms upstairs), offers exceptional light. Like a cottage, this adds to the effect of symbiosis with the surrounding nature.

Thus, the property is similar to a 4-season outdoor resort (canoe; kayak, paddle, sail, hicking, mountain biking, seadoo, snowmobile, etc.). In addition, the house is connected to trail networks without having to travel by car. The Mauricie National Park is located just in front of the village, on the other side of the St-Maurice River

.

If you dream of this living environment, of peace, away from the noise, with nature on your doorstep, this property is tailor-made for you!

The steps involved in buying a property

Could this property be “the one”? Here’s an overview of the steps involved in becoming the owner. These steps and the legal implications remain the same whether the property is purchased from an individual or through a broker.

1
Financing

One of the first things to do when looking for a property is to get a mortgage preapproval from a financial institution. The goal is to determine borrowing capacity, and as a result, the price range to be looking in.

2
Offer to purchase

The property suits the budget and needs? Time to submit an offer to purchase! This document sets out the price, the elements included in the sale, the possession date, the conditions of purchase and all other information relevant to the sale.

3
Conditions of purchase

The offer to purchase generally includes conditions. The most common are the property passing an inspection, the buyer providing proof of financing and the buyer selling their own property. Once the listed conditions are met, the property is considered sold.

4
Property transfer

The last step is to see a notary, who is generally chosen by the buyer. This real estate professional drafts the deed of sale and ensures that the interests of all parties involved are respected.

Once the deed of sale is notarized, the new owner gets the keys to the home. All that’s left is to move in!
