Overlooking the Saguenay Fjord, the property offers spectacular views of the fjord and sunsets. This bioclimatic residence embodies excellence in contemporary northern living. It meets the most rigorous energy-efficiency standards for northern construction, featuring a magnificent masonry heater as the central heating system. Its high-performance design, heated floors, premium materials, and open-concept spaces bathed in natural light create a unique atmosphere that blends comfort with refinement. Access to the fjord is available via the Anse des Roche marina. A truly unique setting.

SPECIAL FEATURES

The masonry heater, clad in natural cut stone, directly heats the hydronic radiant floors. It is combined with an electric boiler system that provides supplemental heating when the masonry heater is not in use. The system also works with a curtain wall of triple-glazed Low-E windows designed to maximize passive solar gain.

The site is truly unique in Québec, as it lies within the Saguenay–St. Lawrence Marine Park and SEPAQ territory, with hiking trails accessible on foot directly from the property. The fjord in front of the residence is more than 200 metres deep. Nearby is Baie Sainte-Marguerite and its legendary salmon river, where belugas return each year to give birth—a remarkable natural sanctuary.
