Sherbrooke's Luxury Real Estate

A vibrant city in the heart of the Eastern Townships

Sherbrooke, the true heart of the Eastern Townships, captivates with its perfect balance of nature, culture, and urban energy. Crossed by the Magog and Saint-François rivers, the city developed around this rich natural heritage, which now gives it a peaceful and inspiring character. Once known by its Abenaki name *Nikitotegwak* – “where the waters divide” – Sherbrooke takes its current name from British governor Sir John Sherbrooke, a reflection of its history at the crossroads of cultures.
