Homes for Rent and Property for Sale in Knowlton, Lac Brome
There are so many reasons to visit Lac Brome, Knowlton, Quebec and twice as many reasons to live here! Centrally located near shopping and recreation without being cluttered with the modern commercial jungle Knowlton, Lac Brome offers some property and rental prospects that are un-matched in the province!
Where else could you find a "for rent" or "for sale" offering that read like a scene from a Victorian novel, such as:
"Our lovely one-level home in Knowlton is again available for rental between the end of October and the end of May (6 to 7 months rental with an option for more). It is located on a short quiet street near the Brome lake and the marina. A tiny neighborhood, where friendly local residents live all year round. It is luxury living for one couple, although a second bedroom offers room for the occasional visitor or another person. Large open living areas with englassed patio doors give the impression of living outdoors. The large confortable bedroom offers his and hers dressing areas and an office area with all conveniences. Our previous tenants are all available to tell you how living in our home not just satisfied them, but how it was instrumental for them to become themselves permanent Knowlton residents and/or home owners. Ideal for Montreal working people, who seek a getaway and weekend retreat from the bustling city. And ideal for business people who will be stationed in the Eastern Townships for the rental period. Rent includes care taker services, snow clearing, Bell Express Vu or Videotron Cable and Internet services, all furnishings and facilities. $800.- monthly, minimum 6 months, maximum 7. "
Now doesn't that sound like a dream? Living in Knowlton can be like a long fuzzy dream where time stands still and the residents seem to exist in a separate era, a time-warp almost, where progress is almost un-welcome and the quiet times are "en vigeur" with only the occasional truck or motorbike passing through the quaint village.
Unlike many cities or large towns, Knowlton and Lac Brome, Quebec, do not exhibt the classic signs of becoming a flourishing and multi-cultural melting pot where cultures and beliefs blend and evolve while creating a commercial atmosphere of thriving business and artistic community.
Instead, according to some residents, Brome Lake is remaining more like the historical two-tiered society of Canada which once divided into the elite and the working class. Of course the growth of Lac Brome has been important in bringing change and new values consistant with modernization and progress yet the local political thrust and the"Silent Majority" have ensured that Lac Brome remains true to a certain vision which keep Knowlton and Lac Brome as a unique place in Quebec.
