Welcome to 7414-7416 rue Jacques-Rousseau, a charming
property in the quiet and sought-after Rivière-des-Prairies
area of Montréal. With its Virginia creeper-covered façade,
mature trees and lush greenery, this duplex wins you over
at first glance. Carefully maintained and improved by the
same owner for 24 years, it combines a large two-level main
unit with a generous rental unit upstairs: a rare
opportunity for both owner-occupants and investors.

The main floor centres on a sun-filled kitchen with a
central island, opening onto a large rear deck that's
perfect for family meals and evenings with friends. The
spacious living room, with access to the front balcony,
invites you to unwind. Three comfortable bedrooms and a
full bathroom renovated in 2026 complete this well-designed
level.

Finished and remarkably spacious, the basement extends the
living space beautifully. It features a private fourth
bedroom, a bright office with a large window, a full
bathroom, a laundry room and plenty of storage, plus a
large family room with character thanks to its exposed
beam. A separate front entrance allows two distinct living
spaces to coexist in harmony. This level also offers great
potential: renting a room to a student from the nearby
CEGEP, or a possible conversion into a bachelor, all while
preserving the main unit's privacy.

Upstairs, the rental unit is a large 4½ with a double
bedroom, renovated in 2023, that could easily be
reconfigured into a 5½. Rented at $1,600 per month to quiet
and respectful tenants, it provides welcome income to ease
your mortgage payments or build a long-term investment.

Outside, the fenced 3,379 sq. ft. lot includes parking, a
deck and a shed. The terraced landscaping and mature
greenery create several private nooks to enjoy the yard: a
true green retreat in the heart of the city.

Improvements over the years: replacement of all windows
(2017); basement finished with full bathroom and laundry
room (2017); wall-mounted heat pump in the main unit
(2018); water heater (2021); renovation of the upper unit's
kitchen and bathroom, with addition of a heat pump (2023);
renovation of the main floor bathroom (2026).

Location-wise, everything is close at hand: amenities,
parks, schools and bike paths, plus the river just a few
minutes' walk away. Highway 40 makes commuting to downtown
Montréal easy, while Highway 25 offers direct access to the
North Shore.

A welcoming and versatile property combining space, rental
income, privacy and nature, with all the perks of city
living. All that's missing is you!
