The most significant sale in history across all 810 apartments and penthouses of Les Verrières sur le fleuve complex
About the property – On the 17th floor of the tower, Penthouse PH 3.5 unfolds across 2,927 square feet on a single, uninterrupted plane where every room traces the curves of the St. Lawrence River.

A marble-floored entrance hall opens onto a flowing sequence of reception spaces. The living room, spanning 44.5 square feet, extends into the dining area over more than 17 feet of depth, the whole enveloped by full-height glazing that frames the natural and urban panorama without interruption. Rich hardwood floors run beneath every living space, lending the residence its warm, convivial character.
A dining alcove set within a curved solarium, at the junction of the kitchen and the main terrace, serves as a gathering place for the home’s residents. The kitchen itself stretches nearly 22 feet and provides direct access to the private terrace. Fitted with a motorized awning, the terrace commands open views of the river, the city, and an unobstructed horizon.

The primary suite occupies 345 square feet, making it an undeniable haven of rest and comfort. Two walk-in wardrobes flank the room, complemented by an en suite bath finished entirely in marble, where a soaking tub and independent shower are united in a single space. Two additional bedrooms share a second marble bath and a powder room. One has been configured as a study by the current residents.
A second terrace, accessible from the primary suite and the study, offers a more intimate retreat overlooking the gardens.
Three garage parking spaces and three storage units complete the property.
About Les Verrières sur le fleuve
Six residential towers erected between 1987 and 1991 on the banks of the St. Lawrence River, on Nuns’ Island. Designed by architect Jean-Claude Lachance and built by Magil Construction in collaboration with Proment Corporation, Les Verrières sur le fleuve comprises 810 apartments and penthouses within an ensemble that has reshaped the landscape of one of Montreal’s most coveted areas.
The project earned recognition from the APCHQ upon delivery, receiving the Domus Prize for Builder of the Year and Residential Project of the Year (multifamily) in 1989, followed by the Excelsior Prize for marketing.
The complex owes much of its reputation to its riverfront gardens, where ponds, cascades, rock formations, and a sculpture garden converge. An open-air amphitheatre was purpose-built to host classical music concerts facing the water during the summer months. More than 10,000 square feet of recreational and athletic facilities are distributed across the towers: indoor and outdoor pools, tennis courts, fitness rooms, spas, saunas, reception halls, guest suites, and a path that traces the shoreline.

Tower V is the first building in Quebec to have undertaken major works to support the charging of up to 120 electric vehicles within its garages, a reflection of management resolutely oriented toward innovation and the comfort of its residents.
The complex sits within reach of every service on Nuns’ Island and the Reseau express metropolitain (REM) station, operational since July 2023, connecting the South Shore to downtown Montreal and, by spring 2027, offering direct access to Montreal-Trudeau International Airport.
