A vibrant natural refuge -- 1340 Morin Avenue, Chertsey
Nestled in the heart of nature, this unique property of rare beauty combines the rustic charm of a chalet with the comfort of a cozy home, designed to unwind, gather, and reconnect with what matters most. Built in 2010 by an inspiring couple, this house has been lovingly and thoughtfully maintained over the years, with the intention of making it a true sanctuary of peace.
The grounds are vast and private, surrounded by the surrounding forest: fruit trees, peaceful trails winding between conifers and mature trees, leading to a beautiful non-navigable lake. A private, gently sloping sandy beach, ideal for swimming with young children, and a dock are located next to a small sanctuary garden and a hammock area. No motors here: only the sound of birdsong and the rustling of leaves.
Between the house and the lake, the forest becomes a playground for exploring: an obstacle course, a treehouse, a sandbox, a swing, a fire pit for starry nights, and an open space for games or sports. Everything is there to create precious memories!
Inside, the house offers a beautiful balance between conviviality, comfort, and functionality. The ground floor opens onto a bright, welcoming, and warm open space with exposed beams. The spacious kitchen is designed for gatherings, with its long wooden countertops and central island. The dining room leads to a sunny terrace, perfect for cocktails or outdoor meals. The living room, with its wood-burning fireplace and cathedral ceiling, completes this gathering space.
*We love the three-season veranda, which becomes the heart of the house in the summer - perfect for summer meals or even sleeping under the stars! (The table converts into a large outdoor bed.)
Upstairs: two bedrooms, a boudoir (perfect for working from home or meditating), and a fully functional bathroom.
The garden level offers a large, versatile family room: a cinema area, foosball table, or relaxation area. There's also a separate bedroom, a versatile space that can be converted into a fourth bedroom, a large storage area, and a heated workshop with a garage-style door.
At the rear, under the terrace, a spa awaits you, sheltered and well integrated into the wooded setting, an ideal relaxation area.
More than a home, it's a vibrant and deeply rejuvenating space. The owners sincerely hope that those who make it their home will, in turn, be touched by the gentleness and enveloping energy of this exceptional place.
5 minutes from the center of Chertsey and all amenities!
Short-term rentals are permitted in the area (validation with the municipality).
Note that a wooded lot located next door is also for sale, a great opportunity to consider for a family or friends project. #mls 16175878
