Living in North america's most romantic city is a privilege not everyone is lucky enough to have.
Even though the city is steeped in history, the year-round activities and ever growing business activity, makes of Quebec a preferred destination for thousands of people every year wanting to move and settle down here.
This condo is located on 5 Rue d' Auteuil, just few steps away from Rue St Jean and Place d' Youville, -the heart of the old city- where all bus lines converge. Surrounded by the Parc de l' Artillerie, you can be sure to be on the middle of the action without loosing a bit of your privacy and tranquility.
The condo is located on a 4 story building with only 8 apartments. All apartments are on two levels, giving you the largest amount of space available on the Old City !!
An historical building renovated on 1999, all exteriors are on the original brick and stones, and interiors are made using the best materials to ensure your comfort every season of the year.
A paying parking lot is situated just behind the building, and all streets close to the building and its surroundings allow easy traffic in and out of the city, even during the crowded summer festivals !!
This is the view of Rue Saint Jean and Place D'Youville from the entrance of the building. As you can see all the action is just around the corner. The opposite side leads to the "Basse Ville" through the Parc de l' Artillerie; being the train station and Boulevard Charest only 5 minutes walk from the building.
A small private patio is available for all residents to enjoy the hot summer days around friends and BBQ.
Also an underground cabanon to store stuff such as bycicles, skis, summer chairs, etc.
Recycling containers are as well available for waste disposal.
The Condo is located on the ground level and is a two-floors unit.

It can be used as a bedroom for the little ones or for office at home or both.
This bedroom has a large closet that can be used to store clothes or just tools and boxes. The closet goes underneath the condo's stairs so it can be used as storeroom with plenty space.
