The neighborhood coquette | A cottage on the river bank

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.



Located along the river, on Chemin du Roy, Saint-Augustin-de-Desmaures offers tranquility less than 20 km from the capital’s city center. Located in this small town of 20,000 inhabitants, a warm New France-style house is waiting for a buyer, but not for long!

Built in 1977, it borrows from its ancestral features a country character which gives it more soul. Wood paneling, massive beams and the warmth of a rustic pine floor anchor this character from another era.

On the ground floor, light enters generously through the large paned windows and illuminates the open area where sandstone rubs shoulders with field stone and gilded wood. Upstairs, three bedrooms with sloping ceilings surround the master bathroom. The property has been lovingly treated by those who have occupied it for 20 years, and it shows. The land, strewn with mature trees and bordered by wooded land which makes the courtyard intimate, also bears witness to this.

Its price: $469,000

His town: Saint-Augustin-de-Desmaures

Its rooms: 7, including 3 bedrooms

Its land: 18,390 ft2

Its little extras: proximity to the river, a mature and wooded courtyard, an interior renovated over the years, an abundance of light and three fireplaces clad in field stone which add to the warm side of the decor.
