Buying in Verdun
Buying a property in Verdun.
Wellington Street, an urban beach and the riverbanks: Verdun is one of Montreal’s most popular neighbourhoods.
The local market
The Verdun real estate market.
Verdun stretches along the river, southwest of downtown. Wellington Street, pedestrian in summer, its cafés and restaurants, Verdun beach and kilometres of landscaped riverbanks make it highly sought after by families and young professionals.
The neighbourhood is mostly plexes (duplexes, triplexes) with outdoor staircases, many converted into condos, and recent condos. Nuns’ Island, in the same borough, offers a very different market.
