A Quebec Château With 30 Rooms and River Views Looks Centuries Old. It Was Built in 1964.

The Reddit poster noted that Château de Neuville is "surprisingly enough younger than it seems." This is an understatement. The château — seven bedrooms, six bathrooms, more than 30 rooms, handcrafted stained glass windows, woodwork throughout, a river terrace, and the architectural presence of something built in the 17th century — was completed in 1964. It is listed at C$1,499,000, which at current exchange rates is approximately US$1.1 million, on one of the oldest and most scenic stretches of the St. Lawrence River in Quebec.

The Château

The listing describes a "majestic residence" combining refinement and history, with exceptional finishes including woodwork and handcrafted stained glass windows throughout. More than 30 spacious rooms — each described as telling its own story — have been carefully renovated and preserved to blend modern comfort with old-world character. An immense terrace looks out over the St. Lawrence River, ideal, the listing notes, for events. The structure reads convincingly as a property that has stood for centuries, which is either a testament to the vision of whoever commissioned it in 1964, or simply what happens when you build a château in a village that has been continuously settled since 1665 and has been producing extraordinary architecture ever since. Neuville itself sits perched on marine terraces above the St. Lawrence, about 40 kilometers west of Quebec City on the Chemin du Roy — the first road to connect Quebec City to Montreal, established in 1734. The Reddit poster described it as "picture worthy." This is accurate.

The Listing Zillow Doesn't Quite Know What to Do With

A note on the numbers: Zillow lists the property at 315 square feet, which would make it the most efficiently packed seven-bedroom château in North American real estate history. The actual figure is 315 square meters — approximately 3,390 square feet — a metric-to-imperial conversion that Zillow did not perform before publishing. The price per square foot listed ($4,747 CAD) is similarly a product of this error and should be disregarded. What is accurate: seven bedrooms, six bathrooms, more than 30 rooms, a river terrace, 13 parking spaces, and a metal roof on a property that has been on the market since July 2025. Quebec seldom appears on Zillow at all, the Reddit poster noted — and a 1964 château on the St. Lawrence is not what most people expect when they open the app. For C$1,499,000, it is offering something genuinely rare: the full château experience, in one of Quebec's most historically layered villages, at a price that would not buy a two-bedroom condo in Montreal.

The Internet Has Thoughts

Naturally, this listing caught the attention of Reddit's r/zillowgonewild community. See what people are saying about it here.

Thirty rooms, handcrafted stained glass, St. Lawrence River views, and a 1964 build date hiding in plain sight. C$1,499,000. View the full listing here.
