816 D'Aiguillon, Québec (La Cité-Limoilou)

Some homes are simply visited, while others are felt the moment you step through the door.

Built in 1876, this home undoubtedly belongs to the latter. Behind its discreet façade on D'Aiguillon Street lies a spacious, warm and deeply authentic residence, where nearly 150 years of history have created an atmosphere that would be nearly impossible to replicate today.

From the moment you enter, the magnificent curved staircase immediately catches the eye and sets the tone. As you move from room to room, the home's original character gradually reveals itself through its woodwork, hardwood floors, exposed brick and stone walls--details that speak to the home's history and give it such a distinctive personality.

The generous living spaces offer countless possibilities. Three separate sitting rooms make it easy to create distinct areas for entertaining, reading, working or simply enjoying everyday life. There is also the possibility of adding another bedroom, while the three existing bedrooms can easily adapt to changing needs.

At the rear of the home, the large kitchen opens onto the dining room beneath a beautiful coffered wood ceiling. It is a natural gathering space that extends seamlessly onto the 22 x 10 ft. terrace. Beyond it, almost hidden from the street, lies a charming, private, tree-lined backyard--a true urban retreat for morning coffee, outdoor dinners and long evenings with friends.

And then, there is Saint-Jean-Baptiste.

Here, the car can easily give way to walking and cycling. Less than a minute away, Saint-Jean Street becomes a natural extension of the home, with its shops, cafés, restaurants and neighbourhood favourites. Just a short walk brings you to Place D'Youville and the fortifications of Old Québec.

The location is exceptional for enjoying Québec City's central neighbourhoods. Old Québec, Parliament Hill, Montcalm and Saint-Roch are all nearby, each offering its own atmosphere, shops, restaurants and attractions.

Life here moves to the rhythm of the city, while behind your own front door, you return to the charm, space and privacy of a true home.

A rare property for those seeking far more than an address--a home with soul, a story to tell, and a truly unique way to experience Québec City.
