Since 2019, the current owners have kept this home meticulously cared for, and it shows in every room. The property is ready to welcome its next family.

On the shores of Lac Gémont, in the Seigneurie de la Chapelle sector, this 2005 property sits on a deeply private site: the long driveway leading to the house keeps it out of view, and the wooded lot slopes gently down to the lake. Built with high-end materials, the home was designed to welcome several generations at once without ever running short on space or privacy.

From the entrance hall, the mouldings, stained glass and slate set the tone. The rooms are spacious and bright, with lake views from several points in the house. The generous kitchen opens onto a breakfast nook and a separate dining room for large family meals. The living room warms around a wood-burning stove, while the four-season sunroom, with its gas fireplace, stretches the evenings out no matter the month. On the same floor, the primary bedroom has its own private, renovated ensuite bathroom, as does the one on the second floor, along with the powder room. Storage is never in short supply, cedar closet included. On the garden level, the in-law suite gives your children coming home, or your parents, a space of their own, just steps from yours.

Outside, a space tucked under the trees holds the spa and sauna, for a sheltered spot to unwind. The wraparound balcony runs along nearly the whole property, with a covered section to enjoy the outdoors even on rainy days. The perennial gardens are thoughtfully landscaped, and the wooded lot slopes gently down to the dock. One hundred thirty-seven feet of shoreline, for swimming or launching a paddleboard or canoe.

The advantages of living in St-Adolphe-d'Howard

St-Adolphe-d'Howard keeps the feel of a village, with ski slopes nearby and St-Sauveur just minutes away for restaurants, shops and everyday errands. The area stays residential and quiet, surrounded by the nature of the Laurentians, while keeping easy access to the main routes toward Montreal for work or weekends at the cottage. It's the kind of place where life slows down, where children and grandchildren want to come back, summer and winter alike.

A big house here means room for the whole family to gather without ever getting in each other's way: family gatherings that stretch out onto the balcony, the canoe that comes out after breakfast, kids who come home for the weekend and have their own corner of the house. The kind of property that gets passed down, and that makes you want to come back to it, day after day.
