Between the Lachine Canal and the river, steps from downtown, Pointe-Saint-Charles offers a neighbourhood with strong community spirit.

The local market

The Pointe-Saint-Charles real estate market.

Pointe-Saint-Charles is one of Montreal’s oldest working-class neighbourhoods, long tied to the Grand Trunk railway shops. It stands out for its row houses, community organizations, parks and proximity to the canal, the river and downtown.

You will find row houses, plexes, housing co-ops and more and more recent condos. Several areas are being redeveloped, which is changing the supply.

What Montreal buyers say.

Buying a house in Montreal was easy thanks to Mercedes from Équipe MG. She is a knowledgeable and professional Montreal realtor who made the entire home-buying process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home or condo in MTL.
