For those of you that have followed this series since the beginning - you know that I often showcase Montreal's architecture !
What I've never mentioned is McGill University - located in downtown Montreal - which is probably what this city is most famous for to outsiders - and which is - in & of itself - a glorious tribute to Montreal !

For the main reason that it used to house a lot of Mcgill University students back in the day................
It used to be predominantly old Victorian town houses or flats that were in need of repair and so the rents were very reasonable.
Today it's been gentrified - with a lot of the interiors completely renovated - here's an example of what's on the market !
589,000

ReplyDeleteOkay, I want that first one, Suzan, as long as you'll redo the kitchen. Ugly kitchen, gorgeous house! And McGill University looks like a place I'd love to visit! Have a happy Wednesday. xoxo
ReplyDeleteHi Suzan!!
ReplyDeleteWell, what can I say...Once a Montrealer, always a Montrealer!!
The beauty and history that Montreal has is imbeadded in my heart and soul and nothing can change how I feel!! This house is so beautiful with the wood floors and the brick walls!! The way the rooms are furnished really adds the vintage with the new!! Love the fireplaces and the mirror over the fireplace in the condo is so vintage beautiful!!
Great picks, as, usual!!
Enjoy the rest of the week!!

ReplyDeleteLove the house with the exposed brick wall. How pretty. Would not mind the apartment either. Both would be good choices.

Living in California, where a 1927 house like ours is a rarity, I am always in awe of the splendor of the Montreal architecture.
ReplyDeleteMcGill looks like a beautiful campus.
