Welcome to the much-loved community of Westmount, rich in historical value with
beautiful boulevard streets lined with a canopy of trees. 156 John Street, built in
1928, was envisioned as a modern interpretation of Elizabethan architecture &

exterior is adorned with a professionally landscaped garden, flagstone walkways,
stucco, timber accents, & intricate herringbone brickwork, complemented by an
impressive entrance with original light fixtures. Once inside the property, you

staircase, dowelled oak plank floors & a decorative Arts and Crafts ceiling. In the

mouldings, while the dining room exudes warmth & charm with its walnut-panelled
walls & candelabra. The windows cast gentle rays of sunlight & frame views of lush
greenery. The addition to the house, completed in 1956, includes a spacious
open-concept great room with a second fireplace, that overlooks the enchanting
garden. With five bedrooms, ample gathering spaces, & a recreation room, this
