Val-des-Monts, in the Collines-de-l’Outaouais MRC, is a land of lakes and nature where recreation meets permanent living. This character, unique in the Outaouais, calls for an eye used to waterfront properties and former cottages converted into homes.
Recreational properties
- Cottages converted into four-season homes
- Lakefront homes and properties on large lots
- Buildings served by a well and a septic system
- Wood heating and combined systems, common in rural areas
Common issues in Val-des-Monts
Former cottages that have been converted often hide light foundations, incomplete insulation or additions built without permits. Being close to the water also demands vigilance on drainage and moisture. For the concerns specific to rural properties, see our article on wells, septic systems and radon in the Outaouais.
