Summary:
First construction of the project, this chalet is the prototype of our initial ideas. It stands out, among other features, with its pod on stilts, its conversation area in front of the stove, its black roof and windows.
The Space:
It includes a mezzanine, a workspace, a bathroom with shower, and an indoor sauna. Outside: a terrace area and a fire pit with cooking accessories. Ideal for four, but can accommodate up to six people.
Guest Access:
What better way to start your vacation than at your own pace? Thanks to our digital locks, you can enjoy an autonomous and secure arrival.
The Neighborhood:
Located in the beautiful - and still unknown - region of Lanaudière, BESIDE Habitat is a protected territory of 1,254 acres, equivalent to 960 football fields or 1.5 Central Park! Come and explore it freely and enjoy its forest of mature trees. The lakes are only accessible by foot, as a legacy to future generations who will also be able to swim surrounded by tall pines and cliffs, far from any visible construction.
N.B. Wandering thoughts are strongly encouraged on this vast territory.
