The grasshopper and the ant can enjoy the beautiful Laurentian region in this cottage. The lot is very steep so the house was built with a garden level. The passive solar design ensures warmth and light on both floors. In the open area on the main floor, a gas fireplace provides quick and easy additional heating.
