Rare income property with a fully permitted, ready-to-execute residential conversion project, in the heart of Plateau-Mont-Royal, less than a 5-minute walk to Laurier metro station and steps from Avenue Laurier (Petit Laurier), its shops, cafés, restaurants, and Parc Laurier.
1929 brick building currently comprising 4 residential 4½ units (one closed bedroom), leased through June 30, 2027, plus ground-floor and basement commercial space occupied by a psychology clinic and independent professionals.
All 4 residential units share the same layout; one unit was photographed as a representative example (photos 2 to 15). The current medical clinic layout is shown in photos 18 to 32.

Projected revenue once the building is converted to 100% residential:
4 existing 4½ units (leases through June 30, 2027): $4,420/month 9 co-living bedrooms: 5 rooms at $995 + 4 rooms at $825 = $8,275/month Total potential gross revenue: $12,695/month, or $152,340/year
Current gross revenue $95,840/year.
