BANK OF MONTREAL HOUSE

6 Ravenscliffe Avenue Hamilton, ON circa 1911

Ravenscliffe is the concentrated OJ of luxury, historic real estate in Hamilton. It packs a character punch and has been inspiring drive-bys and drool-bys for over 100 years.

And the crown jewel of the street has to be #6. This Spanish mission-style mansion has only had 4 owners in her 106 year history.

The home was originally built in 1911 by the Bank of Montreal for its regional mangers, so they could entertain.
