This property was previously listed for an eye-popping $10,000,000 last summer, before it was lowered to $8,750,000 in the fall.
From the outside, Montreal House is equal parts modern and sustainable. It features an exterior with 18 cantilevered glulam beams strategically placed to offer solar shading for the west-facing windows. The steel framework was designed with Calgary’s diverse climate in mind so it could weather the seasons.
