Description
The ideal forever home in the heart of the Chelsea Hills! Meticulously maintained unique & spacious architecturally designed 4 bed. home on a beautiful wooded lot that connects directly to the Chelsea Green Trail. Featuring 14' ceilings, red brick fireplace & chimney with a magnificent ficus tree in the main space, renovated bathrooms, a massive deck overlooking an inground pool, & a large detached double garage, the extensive maintenance & optimization of this home from a technical perspective is beyond reproach. Mere steps from the Gatineau river, the Chelsea yacht club, you will want to set deep roots here & never want to leave.A must see!
A pretty seasonal stream runs past the house, creating a naturally peaceful atmosphere. The layout of the land ensures that the property is sheltered from the noise of the Hwy-105.
Seller Testimonial: The Legacy on the River. A Rare Opportunity to Inherit a Forever Home
We never imagined writing this. Every choice made within these walls, from the visible finishes to the meticulous, invisible foundational investments, was designed for the long term. This was meant to be the home where our children's children would gather.
However, as perfect as this home and land have been, they are not a replacement for family. After years of trying to draw our loved ones here, we have realized it is time for us to go to them--to be closer to aging parents and the cousins our children should grow up alongside.
If it were possible, we would uplift this entire estate--the rolling land, the panoramic views, the seasonal stream, and the community of neighbors--and take it with us. Since we cannot, we offer it to you with the hope that you will cherish what we have built:
The Environment: The cathedral of trees, the winding trail, and the peaceful soundtrack of the stream. The Lifestyle: High-summer days spent swimming and paddling. (A pro-tip for the next owners: Join the yacht club waitlist immediately; it is the heart of life here.) The Light: A home designed to capture every hour of sunlight, pouring across the transitions between the main house and the pool. This property functions as both a primary residence and a private retreat--a "house and cottage" in one. We invite you to step into our dream, treasure the meticulous care we've poured into the soil and the structure, and begin making plans for your own future generations.
This house has loved us well. We know it will do the same for you.
