Nun's Island 1-Bedroom
Rentals.caPrice: $965/month
Address: 500, rue François
Description: Nun's Island offers a distinct lifestyle in Montreal. Dotted by condo developments, it's quiet and removed from the electric and eclectic commercial streets on the big island.

That's not to say it lacks transit, though. The listing for this apartment indicates there's a bus stop right outside the door.
Nun's Island is also getting a REM stop for rapid, direct access to downtown Montreal.
