Why they chose this property
The heritage home is situated on Lansdowne Avenue — a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of historic Westmount. Built in the early 1900s as part of a graceful row designed by local builder G. T. Thomas, the house reflects the elegance and charm that define this neighbourhood. Lansdowne itself was renamed in 1887 in honour of the Marquess of Lansdowne, then Governor General of Canada, and has long been known for its distinctive stone architecture and sense of calm.
Once farmland and country estates in the 1800s, it became an independent city in 1874 and soon flourished into a green, vibrant community. A short walk from the house brings you to Westmount Park, the Public Library, and the Conservatory, all built around the turn of the century and still at the heart of local life. Along Sherbrooke Street, you’ll find cafés, bakeries, and specialty shops that give Westmount its welcoming, village-like charm — a perfect balance of history, creativity, and quiet elegance.

What makes this property unique
One of the home’s most remarkable former residents was Beverly Shaffer, an Oscar-winning Montreal filmmaker who received an Academy Award in 1977 for her documentary I’ll Find a Way. During her years here, she worked with the National Film Board of Canada and became known for her deeply human storytelling and her ability to give voice to everyday lives. The house still carries that creative spirit, with high ceilings, detailed woodwork, and warm natural light that echo its Edwardian origins.
Westmount itself is one of Montreal’s oldest and most beautiful neighbourhoods, nestled on the western slope of Mount Royal.
