Property/185 Rue Laurier






































Experience the luxury lifestyle of the VIU, Gatineau's premier LEED-certified address. Unit 507 offers a rare 1,299 sq. ft. layout featuring two spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms situated on opposite ends of a large, open-concept living space. This unit located on the 5th floor with tranquil, unobstructed views of Jacques-Cartier Park also offers a striking modern architecture. Take the elevator to the 20th floor to enjoy five-star amenities including a legendary 20th-floor rooftop with BBQ and kitchen for entertaining, coutner-current pool, sauna, and fully equipped gym with panoramic views of the River, pand arliament hill.
A Day in the Life
Your day begins with soft morning light illuminating the
lush canopy of Jacques-Cartier Park. You step out of your
suite, take a short stroll to grab an espresso from the
Bottega next door before stepping directly onto the
pristine waterfront bike paths for your morning walk or
your morning bike ride. By midday, your massive 1,299 sq.
ft. open-concept living area becomes the perfect
sun-drenched environment for remote work or hosting guests.
When venturing out, the region's most prestigious cultural
and political institutions are at your doorstep. A brief
10-minute stroll brings you to the Canadian Museum of
History, while a scenic 20-minute walk across the bridge
leads directly to the National Gallery of Canada,
Parliament Hill, and amazing restaurants. Evenings at Le
VIU are nothing short of spectacular. You ascend to the
legendary 20th-floor rooftop--an amenity space unlike
anything else in the region. Here, you can unwind in the
counter-current pool for your cardio, detoxify in the
sauna, and maintain your fitness routine in the panoramic
view gym, all while watching the sun set behind the falls
and the skyline. Afterward, you retreat to your deeply
private primary suite, completely separated from the guest
quarters, designed for absolute well-being and peace.
The Strategic Opportunity
From an investment and wealth-building perspective, Unit
507 represents a highly strategic acquisition. The Layout
Premium: At 1,299 sq. ft., this unit offers a footprint
rarely seen in modern condo developments. The unique
split-bedroom, split-bathroom layout is the most highly
coveted configuration in the condominium market, maximizing
rental appeal for executive roommates or offering premium
privacy for downsizers hosting guests. The property also
comes with an interor garage and 2 storage units. A
self-serve car wash and a potential for adding a private
electrical car charging stating are just some of the extras
this property offers.
The proximity to Parliament, ambassadorial properties, and
major hospitals makes this location a prime target for
diplomats, government officials, medical professionals and
entrepreneurs seeking rentals or a pied-à-terre in close
proximity to everything.
Buildings with dedicated concierge services and
unparalleled rooftop amenities consistently command higher
resale values and attract premium, long-term tenants. LEED
Certification: The building's LEED rating ensures
exceptional energy efficiency, superior soundproofing, and
a reduced carbon footprint, which directly translates to
lower operational costs and strong appeal to eco-conscious
buyers.
Park- and river-facing units protect property value against
market fluctuations. With a beautiful sightline to
Jacques-Cartier Park, your view is green and serene,
without another condo in the way.
This is more than an acquisition of square footage; it is a
thoughtful, high-yield investment in an unmatched lifestyle
and an architectural icon.
