Let me tell you how excited I am to bring this epic property to the market with Engel & Völkers. When my clients called me to tell me about this property they wanted to sell in Frelighsburg (Eastern Townships) just 100 km outside of Montreal, I thought they would have to sell ME first! I hence drove down there to meet the owners and once arrived on location, they didn’t need to do much explaining!
See for yourself in the video teaser we released:
This domain is truly unique and the story would be awesome to tell:
15 acres of pure Canadian land where waterfalls stream down to create natural swimming basins, overlooked by a three storey house and multiple terrasses.
To prepare for this adventure, I decided to bring on board a local expert and broker Alexandre Fortin to co-list the property with me. Once contracts and formalities were drafted, we were ready to come back a week later to start production.
The Private Waterfalls
Who needs a pool or a jacuzzi when you have you own swimming basins of fresh water? Here are videographers Kevin Brazeau and Alexandre Hallé exploring the lay of the land before we can fly a drone and video equipment. We were hypnotized by the calming sound of the river and let’s not forget it was almost 30C outside!
The cascades create 3 different natural pools that converge to the final huge basin that is between 5 to 12 feet deep. After a good rain, it can get sporty and you can swim against the current.
The house perched on the cliff
The three storey house is perched on a cliff and overlooks the waterfalls, the changing scenery of the seasons and the Mont Pinacle that reigns on the horizon.
Located on the Wine Route and part of an artistic community (actual owners founded the local art fair). The Frelighsburg village is often mentioned as one of the most beautiful villages in Canada, with a booming organic farming scene, thanks to its proximity with super green Vermont.
The Artist Studio
The last storey of the house is dedicated to the painting studio. Very high ceilings, natural light and views of the river and mountain are inspiring and give room for ideas. Obviously this could be transformed in a grandiose entertaining / reading room. All white of course.

And I’d like to thanks both owners for the warm hospitality and their trust!
