Exceptional historic building in the heart of Old Montreal.
Built around 1870 (and likely earlier, according to some sources around 1835), this quadruplex with incomparable European charm is one of the rare surviving examples of historic architecture in the neighborhood. Restored in the 1970s and carefully expanded in the late 1980s, it combines heritage, elegance, and modern functionality.
The building consists of four units, each designed to offer refined comfort:
Ground floor: a warm studio featuring the original fireplace, a true centerpiece of the period, along with stone walls and exposed beams.
2nd and 3rd floors: two beautiful 3 ½ lofts with exposed beams, stone walls, wood  windows with cremone bolt, and fireplaces, creating inviting and harmonious living spaces.
Top floor: a unique duplex added in the late 1980s, offering an exceptional living experience. It features large windows, a private balcony, and a spacious roof terrace with panoramic views of the river, the rooftops of Old Montreal, and the historic skyline. The ingeniously designed kitchen includes marble countertops, and the bedroom and bathroom feature thoughtful storage solutions. The apartment also boasts 8-foot doors, a fireplace, a magnificent living area, and a chandelier. Several magazine articles have highlighted this unit, emphasizing its unique architectural character.
This building is more than an investment: it is a living piece of history, meticulously maintained while preserving its historic charm. Step inside, and you feel transported as if in Europe, yet in the heart of Montreal.
