Period-perfect hardwood flooring, deep mouldings, traditional leaded windows and a grand, three-storey scale appear original to this house. But they are actually the stunning result of an extreme makeover to an architecturally uninteresting, Georgian-style home purchased for its location by Montreal designer and De Poitiers owner Julie Charbonneau. The white and light grey backdrop perfectly highlight Julie's expert mix of French antiques with deep, comfortable timeless upholstered furniture.
See how Julie hosted an elegant cocktail party for the holidays in our December 2009 issue, all about entertaining.
