Property Description
A rare piece of Quebec heritage: square dovetailed log home built from 150-year-old timbers, salvaged and re-erected here in 1981 by John Jefferson, respected builder of Village Mont-Cascades' log homes. Modernized where it counts: Rénoclimat-certified insulation, high-efficiency heat pump, and high-speed fibre optic internet. Deeded access to two lakes with beaches; hiking trails at your door; ski hill and golf minutes away. Built for self-sufficiency: 1,000 sq ft heated two-level workshop, wood shelter, fenced vegetable garden, and mature fruit trees. 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, exposed log character throughout. 30 minutes to downtown Ottawa.
