Addenda

In Saint-Urbain, at the gateway to Grands-Jardins National Park, discover a heritage property full of soul, originally built by Thomas Fortin, a prominent figure associated with the creation of the park. Previously known as Maison du Coureur des Bois during its former operation as a tourist accommodation, the property carries a rich history deeply rooted in the Charlevoix region. Thoughtfully restored over the years, it was awarded the Prix du patrimoine in 2013, although the property itself is not officially designated as a heritage property.

Furnished and decorated with pieces rich in history and personality, the home reveals a distinctive artistic character. Its expansive grounds offer an abundance of fruit trees and edible plants, including; 4 grapevines, 1 plum tree, 3 apple trees, 3 crabapple trees, 2 pear trees, 3 sea buckthorn shrubs, 2 cherry trees and several wild cherry trees. The property also features a variety of berries and edible plants, including red currants, raspberries, blackberries, cherries, blackcurrants and Jerusalem artichokes. A vegetable garden, chicken coops and several outbuildings complete the setting, offering wonderful potential for a hobby farm and/or tourist accommodation project.

Directly in front of the property, the Rivière du Gouffre becomes a natural playground, with access for canoeing and kayaking, as well as a salmon pool directly in the river for fishing enthusiasts.

Outdoor activities continue right on the property, with a volleyball court to be refreshed, horseshoe pits, a polo game and a basketball hoop. In winter, the surrounding area is ideal for snowshoeing, with access to the Trans-Québec snowmobile trail network.

Located just 25 minutes from ZEC des Martres, near Le Massif de Charlevoix and Grands-Jardins National Park, the property enjoys a privileged location for experiencing everything Charlevoix has to offer, year-round.
