This apartment is also a 5-min walk to La Fontaine and Sir-Wilfried-Laurier Parks, perfect for a morning stroll with your animals.

Guest Access:

You’ll have full, exclusive access to the apartment during your stay. Guests must climb stairs not suitable for guests with low mobility.



The Neighborhood:

You'll be right on Mont-Royal Avenue, fun, picturesque, and full of life, yet quiet enough for a good night's sleep! It's the perfect spot for both couples and families seeking chill morning vibes and peaceful brunches, while night owls can hop over to Saint-Laurent's nightlife. Best of both worlds.



In summer, Mont-Royal Avenue transforms into a pedestrian-only street lined with terraces, cafes, restaurants, and boutiques, ideal for soaking up the unique Montreal summer atmosphere. You're just 5 minutes from La Fontaine and Sir-Wilfried-Laurier Parks—great for morning runs, strolls with pets, or picnics—and within walking distance of the famous Saint-Denis and Saint-Laurent.



Le Plateau’s vibrant vibe puts you just steps away from Montreal’s trendiest cafes, restaurants, bars, galleries, theatres, and boutiques—all the essentials for the perfect stay in one of the coolest cities in the planet, right in its most sought-after district.

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.
