Exceptional location, unique opportunity
First time on the market, this handsome residence, ideally located, is facing iconic Lafontaine Park. From immense balconies gracing the façade, one enjoys an awesome view on the delightful park, inaugurated in 1874 and designed by famed landscape architect Frederik Law Olmsted.
Owned by this one family for generations, the triplex has vast dwellings of 7 1/2.
Large windows and a skylight impart a pleasant luminosity, even on rainy days.
Original wooden mouldings and hardwood floors (maple and oak) spread throughout the apartments, as well as period arcades and elegant stained glass windows, a touch of the Victorian era. To access second and third levels, there is an indoor staircase, rare in the neighbourhood. The basement is over 6' high, and
the roof is of white gravel, in accordance with the energy regulation.
The ground floor opens on an intimate and sunny yard, impressive with its 50 feet long, ideal for private activities. A double garage, rare in the area, is covered with a second level. Over the garages, the roof is all aluminium.
Plateau Mont-Royal is one of the most agreeable districts... bustling and exciting, it offers a variety of delightful restaurants, cafés, trendy boutiques, and all services: schools, university, hospital, bus, subway...
When idling in Lafontaine park, nature lovers will enjoy walking, cycling, skating...or simply daydreaming in front of its inspiring lake and water fountain.
Ideal for outdoors activities, one might enjoy the tennis courts, or the superb Théâtre de Verdure, featuring concerts, plays and movies.
La Dolce Vita...your lifesyle!
