Le Samuel is a 211-unit rental residence located at 1245 Sherbrooke Street West, in the heart of Montreal’s Golden Square Mile. Originally built in 1961-1962 as the Canadian headquarters of Standard Life, the building was fully converted into a residential property and opened in its new form in 2025. The project combines the architectural character of a landmark building with contemporary interiors, refined materials and views of downtown Montreal and Mount Royal.
The apartments are designed to maximize space, natural light and functionality. Suites include free Internet, an individually controlled thermostat, a full-size washer and dryer, 9-foot ceilings, and 6 high-end appliances, including a stove, French-door refrigerator and built-in microwave oven. Kitchens also feature quartz countertops and backsplashes. Furnished suites are available as well.
Le Samuel offers studios, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments, as well as penthouses. The available layouts range from compact, functional homes to large residences. Among the listed floor plans, sizes range from approximately 442 sq. ft. for studios to 1,384 sq. ft. for three-bedroom apartments, while penthouses can reach 2,444 sq. ft. Several units are currently available for immediate occupancy or according to the listed availability.
Le Samuel offers a comprehensive range of shared spaces dedicated to wellness, work and relaxation. The ground floor features a fully equipped fitness centre, while the 21st floor includes a sky lounge, coworking space, yoga studio, lounge and fully equipped shared kitchen. A private residents’ spa area includes a Finnish sauna, hot tub and cold plunge pool. Residents can also enjoy a sunny terrace overlooking Montreal, a relaxation area, an elegant lobby and 24/7 security.
Located in the Golden Square Mile, Le Samuel is within walking distance of downtown Montreal’s restaurants, shops, cafés, art galleries, cultural institutions and green spaces. Its location also provides easy access to public transportation and major downtown destinations. The project therefore combines the historic character of the neighbourhood, convenient access to services and the amenities of a contemporary residence.
