Addendum
Discover waterfront serenity at this charming Pan-Abode log |
chalet situated on the pristine shores of the Ottawa River |
in the picturesque village of Rapides-des-Joachims. This |
882 square foot rustic retreat, affectionately known as |
"Swisha" by locals, offers an exceptional opportunity to |
own a piece of Quebec's scenic Aberdeen Township at an |
attractive price point. |
The cottage features two comfortable bedrooms and one full |
bathroom, complemented by a large screened porch perfect |
for morning coffee while watching eagles soar over the |
Laurentian Mountains. The spacious deck extends your living |
space outdoors, providing front-row seats to unparalleled |
vistas down the Ottawa River. This cozy waterfront haven |
combines rustic charm with practical amenities, creating an |
ideal escape from urban life. |
Located on a generous lot size that maximizes river |
frontage, the property provides direct access to |
world-class fishing and boating opportunities. Launch your |
watercraft steps from your door, utilizing either Ontario |
or Quebec fishing licenses in these productive waters. The |
village offers convenient amenities including fuel, ice, |
bait supplies, and complimentary public docking facilities |
maintained by the municipality. |
The unique neighbourhood of Rapides-des-Joachims occupies a |
five-mile island in the Ottawa River, accessible via one of |
Canada's few remaining single-lane interprovincial bridges. |
This quiet community sits midway between Pembroke and |
Mattawa, just minutes from Highway 17 in Rolphton, Ontario. |
The location offers remarkable isolation while maintaining |
reasonable accessibility to larger centers. |
Rich in history dating back to 1871, this telegraph office |
town once served as the head of navigation on the Ottawa |
River. Today, it remains a peaceful haven where the pace |
slows and authentic Ottawa Valley culture thrives. The |
opposite mountainside hosts a rare eagle reserve, providing |
daily wildlife viewing opportunities from your doorstep. |
This waterfront cottage represents exceptional value in |
today's market, offering affordable entry into prestigious |
river living. The combination of rustic character, prime |
location, and recreational opportunities creates compelling |
investment potential in this historically significant |
community. |
