A new semi-detached home near Saint-Bruno, without starting over
You live in Saint-Bruno-de-Montarville and you are looking for a new semi-detached home near Saint-Bruno without losing your bearings? The BÉAcité project is in Sainte-Julie, on Geoffrion Street, 13.3 km from Saint-Bruno city hall via Rang des Vingt-Cinq: about 17 minutes by car when traffic is light. The mountain, the Promenades and your circle of friends stay within easy reach.
New construction is rare in Saint-Bruno: according to Statistics Canada's 2021 Census, 60.1% of the city's homes were built in 1980 or earlier, and only 2.9% were built between 2016 and 2021. Semi-detached houses make up just 4.8% of its dwellings.

Information and visit request
Why look for a new semi-detached home near Saint-Bruno, in Sainte-Julie
Saint-Bruno and Sainte-Julie are next-door neighbours: Mont-Saint-Bruno National Park borders both cities, and a bike route has linked them along Rang des Vingt-Cinq since 2012, according to the City of Sainte-Julie. Moving from one to the other changes your street more than your lifestyle.
New construction without the usual trade-offs
A BÉAcité home comes with complete landscaping, a garage and an outlet for charging an electric car. No landscaping project in year one, no hedge to plant: you move into a finished home.
A semi-detached home that lives like a detached one
One shared wall, large windows in every room, 9-foot ceilings and a garden-level backyard. Several lots have no rear neighbours, and a pool or spa is possible there.
Sainte-Julie's services
Local public transit is free for everyone on every route, and the Vilamo neighbourhood puts a pharmacy, a Caisse Desjardins, restaurants and medical services within walking distance.
Moving to a maintenance-free home when leaving Saint-Bruno
In Saint-Bruno, the median age is 46 and more than one resident in five is 65 or older (2021 Census). Many still live in a large house they have spent years maintaining… and the upkeep is starting to weigh on them. At BÉAcité, landscaping is complete on delivery and the all-inclusive maintenance program takes over. The semi-detached bungalow keeps the kitchen, living room and primary bedroom on a single floor.
