The question of whether to rent or buy a property (apartment, condo) is a common one. For a long time, buying was perceived as an essential milestone—a symbol of stability and success. However, the Quebec real estate market has evolved... and so have our ways of living and investing.

Today, choosing to live in a brand-new rental condo can be a fully empowered, flexible, and responsible decision that aligns perfectly with a modern lifestyle.

David Fernandez, CFO and partner at Maître Carré, spoke with Le Droit to shed light on everything that makes Mellem Manoir-des-Trembles a one-of-a-kind project.

We welcomed the Ottawa Citizen to Mellem Manoir-des-Trembles in Gatineau. More than just a rental project offering all-inclusive apartments, Mellem Manoir-des-Trembles also represents our desire to build environments that are good for those who live in them, but also for the planet!

A new life for a site steeped in history: once a hospital built in the early 20th century, the Grace Dart Manor has now been given a fresh start—without losing sight of its roots. After months of work, planning, brick selection (yes, it’s serious business), and precise coordination with many dedicated partners, Mellem Grace Dart has officially opened its doors. And already, over 50% of the units have been rented!

Excitement is building at the Mellem Grace Dart construction site! In just a few weeks, the very first residents will be moving into this unique space that blends history and modernity. From the green rooftop terrace and outdoor pool to a landscaped park and a local business on the ground floor, every detail has been designed to create an inspiring, convenient, and enjoyable daily experience for the entire community. Things are moving fast, and here’s where the project currently stands.

Mellem Ville-Marie is coming to life with two new businesses that have set up on the ground floor. A partnership with local entrepreneurs already at the head of several well-regarded establishments in town (Blind Pig, Waverly, Mineral, Cour Arrière, no less!), which reinforces our desire to offer spaces where life is good.

With us, each space is designed to create beauty that feels good. At Mellem Ville-Marie, in the heart of Montreal, and at Mellem Manoir-des-Trembles, at the gateway to nature in Gatineau, we continue to reinvent rental properties with architecture and amenities that inspire, bring people together and do good for everyone. the community.

The concept of intergenerational living is a model that addresses the diverse needs of the population by combining different types of housing. Families of all kinds find suitable spaces, solo students or roommates have functional units, and seniors enjoy comfortable, well-designed accommodations—all within the same residential complex.

Montreal is somewhat of an undisputed paradise for urban art and murals. With the arrival of summer and the completion of the Mellem Ville-Marie project, we took the opportunity to join the tradition of large-scale murals that bloom all over the city.

Fully embrace the urban life of Sherbrooke Street in an environment that combines the charm of the heritage of the former Grace Dart Manor with the modernity of an entirely new construction. This unique project will allow you to experience life in Montreal in a whole new light.

The Mellem Manoir-des-Trembles, which will open its doors this fall in Gatineau, is the i-de-al example of this cohabitation dreamt of by all those who don't want to make any compromises between these two lifestyles.
