Here's a unique opportunity to acquire a four-season cottage on the shores of Lake Christine in Rawdon. According to the municipality, the railcar was installed on this property in 1963. It previously served the loggers who worked in the forests of Lanaudière for decades. In 2017, the current owners acquired it and quickly planned an extension so they could spend their weekends and summer vacations there. Today, you can enjoy year-round comfort in a one-of-a-kind chalet that connects the railcar -- used as the kitchen and bedroom -- to the living room with a wood stove and dining area, all offering a superb view of the lake!!!
In the railcar, you'll find the kitchen, a sleeping area,
and a bathroom with a shower separate from the toilet.
A ladder leads up to a mezzanine bedroom overlooking the
lake... What an idyllic little spot to read and relax!!!
On Chemin de l'Orignal and Lake Christine, there are only 4
cabins.
Access is via Chemin du Lac Clair Nord, just past the
mailboxes.
You are:
- 15 minutes from the village of Rawdon
- 18 minutes from Dorwin Park Falls
- 18 minutes from Ski Montcalm
- 45 minutes from Val St-Côme
- less than 2 hours from downtown Montreal.
Come enjoy the peace and quiet of Rawdon's forest and
lakeside living.
