Maricourt offers wide skies, winding country roads, and a peaceful rhythm that still keeps you close to what you need. Just minutes from Valcourt and an easy drive to Sherbrooke and Richmond, it’s a place where weekend plans can swing from exploring the inventive spirit at the Musée de l’ingéniosité J. Armand Bombardier to lacing up for trails and lakes at Parc national du Mont-Orford. Winters are equally inviting, with powdery backroads for snowshoeing and nearby events that celebrate the region’s snowy pedigree, while summers bring cycling, farm stands, and maple groves.
Families appreciate practical access to education and services. English-language schooling is provided by the Eastern Townships School Board, while the region’s health network, CIUSSS de l’Estrie – CHUS, connects residents to clinics and hospitals across the Eastern Townships. Day-to-day essentials, from groceries to hardware, are found in adjacent towns, and the MRC du Val‑Saint‑François offers resources on local services, permits, and regional initiatives that support rural living.
Homes here range from classic farmsteads and wooded acreage to modern builds tucked amid rolling fields, with room to garden, keep hobbies, or simply enjoy starry evenings. Whether you’re upsizing to land or right-sizing to a quieter pace, Agent Pronto can connect you with a knowledgeable local real estate professional to guide your purchase or sale in and around Maricourt.
