Estate Description -- Saint-Adolphe-d'Howard
The property offered is a vast estate of ±120 acres (485,152.5 m²) consisting of two distinct lots, marketed as a single listing, offering an exceptional combination of waterfront frontage, panoramic views, multiple access points, and high optimization potential.
Maple Grove Potential (Érablière)
The estate stands out for its remarkable natural resources. According to an on-site estimate, the land features approximately 10,000 maple trees, offering significant harvesting potential. Following standard forestry practices, this density would allow for 10,000 to 20,000 taps, making this property a rare opportunity for a large-scale private or commercial sugar bush development.
Waterfront Lot -- Lake Valiquette
The riparian lot boasts an impressive 738 feet of frontage on Lake Valiquette, a non-motorized lake ensuring peace and privacy. An aluminum dock, duly authorized by permit, is already installed. This lot currently holds a valid construction permit for a single-family residence and a secondary building. All relevant documents (plans, specifications, studies, location certificate, etc.) will be provided to the buyer.
Access is via a private road developed through Montée des Artisans, while a theoretical road also connects the lot to the municipalized Chemin des Lacs-Boisés.
Mountain / Rear Lot -- Development Potential
The mountain lot is directly accessible via Chemin des Lacs-Boisés. The seller will provide a preliminary subdivision plan, prepared by an expert, demonstrating a potential for three lots, including a projected road. Any increase in density or modification to the subdivision must be validated by the buyer with the relevant municipal authorities.
Water Access and Recreation
In addition to Lake Valiquette, the property offers access rights to Lake Bourque, reserved for members of the Association (annual fee of approximately $200), featuring a dock for swimming and boat storage. A boat launch is also accessible at Lake Saint-Joseph, a navigable lake connecting Lakes Sainte-Marie and Théodore.
Lifestyle and Location
Direct access to four-season outdoor networks: cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, hiking, and mountain biking. In close proximity to ski centers (Mont-Avalanche, Sommet Saint-Sauveur, Morin-Heights) and approximately 40 minutes from Tremblant. Strategically located 5 minutes from Highway 15, combining wilderness with urban accessibility (1 hour from Montreal).
The seller has completed preparatory work, including the development of forest roads and preliminary building plateaus. The buyer must conduct their own due diligence with the competent authorities.
Inclusions: Plan d'implantation d'une construction sur le bord de l'eau avec permis en règle de la municipalité. certificat de localisation, plan et devis technique pour l'implantation des chemins. Le vendeur remettra tous les documents qu'il a en sa possession.
