Perched atop a forested cliff, this secondary home stands out with its striking, atypical volumes and breathtaking panoramic views. Designed for a young professional couple, the house features four bedrooms and three bathrooms over three spacious levels. Though currently a retreat, it’s envisioned as their future primary residence. With its thoughtful layout and deep connection to nature, this project is a reflection of both the clients’ long-term vision and Écohabitations boréales’ commitment to sustainable, tailored design.
