Other Things to Note:

This apartment is in a classic older building, typical of Montreal’s Plateau-Mont-Royal neighborhood — which is what makes it so appealing . It’s not a modern condo, but its authentic character and original details make it special. The windows are traditional guillotine style, and the floors have natural variations that add to the building’s charm. The unit is well-maintained and professionally cleaned, with effective heating and added window insulation during colder months to keep you comfortable. There is the potential for street noise, like traffic and passersby.
