284 Porter, Ulverton

-The home- Historic charm and modern comfort; Built circa 1890 and thoughtfully expanded, this over 2,500 sq. ft. country home has been renovated with great respect for its original architecture: cedar shingle roof, wood windows, refined woodwork, and wide plank floors. It offers 3 bedrooms, 2 powder rooms, and 1 full bathroom. The living spaces are generous and warm: a large double living room with a wood stove, a spacious and inviting dining room featuring a Bélanger wood cookstove, opening onto a four-season sunroom that invites year-round relaxation and contemplation. Upstairs, a stunning cathedral-ceiling library, a spacious mezzanine sitting area, plus two bedrooms and two powder rooms. The basement, with separate exterior access, provides abundant storage.

-The estate- The art and joy of country living; The land reveals its beauty through the seasons. A heated in-ground saltwater pool with pavilion and terrace sets the stage for long summer evenings. The sugar bush and fully equipped recreational sugar shack (250--300 taps) promise unforgettable family moments during sugaring season. The period outbuildings enhance the property's exceptional charm: a large two-storey barn--the former sheep barn--solid and full of character; a small stable, formerly a sugar shack, proudly set in the middle of the meadow; and a garage, once a henhouse, along the roadside. Winding trails through plantings of oak, white pine, and spruce over gently rolling terrain complete this remarkable estate.

-The region- The best of both worlds; Ulverton offers the quiet charm of a rural hamlet with picturesque roads ideal for cycling. The nearby Moulin à laine d'Ulverton is a must-see heritage site, featuring a museum, riverside trails, exhibitions, and textile history experiences at the heart of the village. Agrotourism enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity of maple groves, artisan farms, and local producers. And to top it off, Highway 55 provides quick access to Sherbrooke or Drummondville in about 25 minutes, offering all major services while preserving absolute tranquility.
