I WANNA live there Wednesday # 38

I live in a pretty incredible area - in Montreal, It's an historical neighbourhood loaded with tons and tons of charm - and 20th century architecture, just steps away from the city center, it's also a pretty expensive neighbourhood ( in which I live in servants quarters basically compared to what I'm surrounded by ) 

Because there are days I don't have furniture makeovers to show you - I've chosen Wednesdays to showcase and feature one or two homes that are for sale around here.................( or apartment - or duplex - or teepee )
Keep in mind this is in the heart of the city - so the prices reflect that  - think Manhattan - where these places would cost 3 or 4 times what they're listed for here!
On occasion I'll showcase beautiful homes in other areas - countries - continents - the one thing most of them will have have in common will be their age - because I love old homes with stories to tell, join me won't you?

Let's go

The ceilings make me swoon - so does the built ins surrounding the fireplace !!!

I would never - never - think to paint a room this color - and I just LOVE it here -

Butlers pantry?  Check out the glass doors on those cupboards!!!!

I actually had to take a break - make a tea - and come back before posting the next one - these are so beyond the realm of my world that it's exhausting lol - it's a weird thing to live among such architectural beauty but to not be " of " it !

The next one up is selling for 2,695,000
5 Bedrooms - 4 baths - 2 half baths

Got your Tea or Coffee ready?
On we go!

Perfection?

Definitely!!!

Now here's a staircase for you!

Suzan says - this would be my office
John says - No - I think this would be mine
Suzan says - in your dreams darling
John says - Well - actually, in YOUR dreams too

but Oh - What a dream to have..................

And this basement?
OMG
I don't think I'd let John have his office anywhere in this house!!!

How's that for smack in the middle of the city?
Walking distance ( or a 5 minute Rolls Royce ride )  from the Theater

That's it for today - gotta clean my little 5 room flat!!!

Have a great Wednesday all - and don't forget to buy a lottery ticket :)

Much love,


Party Time!
