Hurtubise House, French Colonial heritage house in Westmount, Canada.

The stone building at 561 Côte-Saint-Antoine Road features thick walls measuring 60 centimeters and traditional French Colonial architecture across three floors.

Built in 1739 for Jean Hurtubise on land purchased by his father Louis in 1699, the structure remained in the family for six generations until 1955.

The Canadian Heritage of Quebec saved this residence from demolition in 1956, making it the first protected heritage property in the region.

Visitors can explore the house through guided tours from June to August or schedule appointments for private visits throughout the year.

The basement contains ventilation holes initially mistaken for defensive gun ports, but actually served for winter vegetable storage in the colonial period.
