Le Ruisseau : Contemporary Villa with River View, Pool & Spa

Set on a hillside in Cap-à-l'Aigle, facing the St. Lawrence River, Le Ruisseau is a contemporary villa completed in 2022. Its dark cladding and floor-to-ceiling windows dissolve the line between inside and landscape: from the entrance, the nineteen-foot mezzanine opens the house to the river and the light.

The three bedrooms on the entry level each offer a private bathroom and heated floors: a king bed in the master, a queen in the second, and a queen plus a single bed in the third. On the garden level, life gathers around the open kitchen, the dining room and the living room with its wood-burning stove; an adjoining den with three bunk beds gives the children their own space. The 900 sq ft terrace, carried by the murmur of the nearby stream, becomes the centrepiece of fine days: the outdoor spa, open year-round, seats four to six facing the river. The villa is air-conditioned.

A few steps away, the Hameau offers a heated shared outdoor pool, a tennis court and more than 5 km of trails. La Malbaie and its shops are five minutes away, Mont Grand-Fonds fifteen.
