| DOMAINE LE SANCTUAIRE DES LACS |
| Between the sumptuous homes of Saint-Sauveur and Morin Heights (Balmoral) and the splendid residences of St-Adolphe d’Howard (Lac St?Joseph, Réserve Morgan and Lac Ste-Marie), a luxury project was required in the Laurentians to meet the needs of people wanting to combine a peaceful oasis with the latest trends in real estate. |
|
| The highly distinctive Domaine Le Sanctuaire des Lacs is just about an hour’s drive from Montreal. More specifically, the project is not far from Saint-Sauveur (20 km away) and close to Morin Heights (5 km), and offers a perfect compromise for couples and families looking for a place where they can live in harmony with nature in a wildlife sanctuary offering them the tranquility necessary to relaxation and renewal. |
|
| A restful haven right in the midst of nature, the land contains eight lakes and is utterly private, its boundary marked at its edges ? northern (via Saint-Sauveur and Morin Heights) and southern (via Lachute and Brownsburg) ? by electric gates whose use is reserved exclusively for the landowners, and which are monitored at all times by an attendant. |
|
| Domaine Le Sanctuaire des Lacs comprises about 1000 acres and is largely made up of lakefront properties. The project developers own about 40 lots, each at least five acres in size (up to 150 acres), of which about 25 are currently available (Phases I and II), and most of which enjoy a splendid, panoramic view. Common areas ring the project for a total of 2,500 additional acres, providing even more protection to this exceptional site and imparting an unusual sense of privacy to the project as a whole. |
|
| Purchasers can acquire a magnificent piece of land, right on a lake, having a minimum acreage of 218,000 square feet, for a price that starts at 50 cents a square foot, depending on the lake selected. |
|
| New owners can build the home of their dreams (and their choice) at their own pace, or can opt for a turnkey Viceroy-type home offered by distributor “Les Résidences de Prestige L.M.”. Regulations are in place that will ensure homogeneous properties in order to safeguard future construction (see regulations on the website). |
|
| Fifteen or so families have already taken up residence in the territory and about 10 other landowners expect to build their homes in the near future. |
|
| What sets this project apart is primarily the quality of water in the lakes and the richness of the wildlife (fish, animals and birds) that make up this unusually privileged ecosystem. The region is overflowing with life and abounds in species such as moose, deer, loon…. |
|
| For purposes of environmental protection, motorboats with gas engines are prohibited, although electric motors are allowed. But for those who love water sports (using motorboats and personal watercraft), an area providing access to Lac Louisa (5 km long and 11 km in circumference, see aerial map) has been developed just a stone’s throw from the Sanctuaire. |
|
| WARNING TO THE READER: If you decide to visit the project (by appointment only), be prepared to fall in love!!! |
