WATERFRONT IN SAINT-OURS -- PEACE, NATURE, AND THE SIMPLE LIFE

Welcome to 1918 chemin des Patriotes in Saint-Ours -- a truly unique riverfront property on the banks of the Richelieu, perfect for nature lovers and couples approaching retirement in search of peace and simplicity.

Set on a beautifully treed lot of over 60,000 sq. ft. (approximately 1.38 acres), this charming cedar-clad home has been in the same family since it was built in 1977. Lovingly maintained throughout the years, it offers a peaceful lifestyle in perfect harmony with nature.

On the right side of the house, a lovely covered veranda invites you to make the most of warm summer nights -- from family game nights and dinners with friends to quiet reading sessions while listening to the sounds of nature and watching the sun set over the river. It's magical year-round.

Inside, the open-concept layout brings together the living room, dining area, and kitchen in a warm, welcoming space. The living room boasts large windows with unobstructed river views, and the wood-burning fireplace adds charm and comfort throughout the seasons. Classic parquet floors and original wood cabinets in the kitchen add to the home's authentic character. A patio door opens to a treated wood deck, ideal for dining outdoors and entertaining guests.

The main floor offers two generously sized bedrooms and a functional bathroom.

Downstairs, the fully finished basement provides a family room, an additional bedroom, a home office, a second bathroom, a laundry area, a cedar closet, and a cold room with outdoor access -- a great bonus for storage, preserves, or even wine. Whether you're hosting family, working from home, or pursuing hobbies, there's space for everything.

All main floor windows were recently replaced, improving energy efficiency and comfort. Outside, a detached garage offers plenty of room for your tractor, gardening tools, or outdoor equipment.

If you're dreaming of a simpler, nature-connected lifestyle, this property offers everything you need -- space to garden, raise chickens, or simply relax and enjoy the changing seasons. Paddle, sail, or just breathe.

Nearby, a golf course doubles as a cross-country skiing trail in winter, and the surrounding countryside is perfect for cycling and long nature walks.

Need daily conveniences? The town of Sorel, with its array of shops, grocery stores, restaurants, and essential services, is just 15 minutes away. Montreal is only 75 minutes away, with easy access via Highway 20, 30, or 133.

A peaceful haven by the Richelieu, with all the essentials close at hand. Welcome to Saint-Ours.
