AN EXCEPTIONAL HERITAGE GEM
Built in the 1820s at the historic North--South and East--West crossroads of Île Jésus, this rare property occupies a strategic location that once served as a bustling hub of commerce, travel... and revolution. Local lore suggests it was even a meeting point for the Patriotes during the Rebellions, making it a privileged witness to key chapters of Quebec's history.
A PRESTIGIOUS HISTORICAL SIGNATURE
Originally a general store, the home became in 1869 the notarial practice of André-Benjamin Papineau, cousin of the famed Patriote Louis-Joseph Papineau.
Respectfully restored, it was reborn in 2007 when the architectural firm Luc M. Allard Architecte established its offices here, bringing together history, design and modernity under one roof.
