Affordable and adorable: we set ourselves the challenge of finding Quebec properties for sale for less than $500,000, but with a little something that allows them to stand out.
This coquette displays all the charm and elegance of Victorian architecture with its pretty flourishes, cabinetry details and red brick.
The origins of this house, located at the entrance to the town, are unknown. However, its date of construction would be around the 1920s, a time when we can imagine that tea was served on the great gallery. The latter stretches on two sides and announces the warm character of the whole which will appeal to resourceful DIY enthusiasts.
The interior includes nine rooms, including a large bathroom, a separate laundry room and three bedrooms, two of which have a small private balcony delimited by a wrought iron railing. If the ground floor was restored by reintroducing a good number of woodwork, the upstairs has retained its own, in addition to its attic ceilings made of wooden slats. The spacious kitchen has a large island covered in granite, like the worktops. The dining room is a separate room, next to the living room. The grand staircase occupies the center of the space and so does the foyer. We wouldn’t be asked to spend hours there come winter.
The exterior environment is, however, the favorite aspect of this property, set back from the street on 28,000 sq. ft. of land sheltering numerous mature trees. The large, fenced backyard is a beautiful blank slate for inspired gardeners.
