Listed at $2,998,000, this home is within the range of comparable homes, on the higher side. The number above is my independent estimate of value, not the asking price.
In Lawrence Park South lately, sellers have been getting about 95% of asking and homes sell in about 29 days.
There were not many closely comparable homes right in Lawrence Park South, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.
Based on 57 similar homes that recently sold nearby, adjusted for size, beds, and baths.Median of 57 recently sold comparable homes — actual closing prices, not asks — adjusted for size, beds, and baths. The city (MPAC) assessment points to about $3.95M, higher than the comparables and worth a second look.
How I got there
Here is the exact math behind the estimate. I start from the closest comparable listing and adjust for the real differences (size, beds, baths) to land on a like-for-like value for this home.
- Closest comparable, sold for $3.86M
- Bathrooms −$60K
- Adjusts to $3.80M
That comparable adjusts to $3.80M; the $2.77M estimate above is the median of all 57 comparables, which is steadier than any single home.This estimate is grounded in actual closing prices from the last 15 months, not asking prices. Lot, condition, and finishes are still my in-person call.
On schools, this address is zoned for Lawrence Park Collegiate Institute, one of the higher-rated public schools in the area. A strong catchment tends to hold value and widen your resale pool, especially with family buyers.
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $2.77M, median of 57 comparables.
What the listing highlightsThese are claims from the listing. The only way to know for sure is to see it in person, and I am happy to book you a private showing.

- Pool: lifestyle appeal, but adds maintenance, insurance, and resale is mixed. Weigh carefully
- Tall ceilings: they transform how a home feels, worth confirming the actual heights room to room. Worth verifying
- Hardwood floors: quality hardwood is durable and broadly desirable. Lifestyle
- Sold as-is / needs work: budget for renovation, the price should reflect the condition. Weigh carefully

Investor snapshot
Thinking of this home as an investment? We will pull real comparable rents and run the full numbers with you.
Talk about the numbersEstimates only. Rent is modelled on above-grade size and local norms, so a finished basement or second suite (a separate entrance often means one) can push real rent well above this. Taxes, fees, and vacancy vary by property, and cap rate is before financing. A starting point, not a final number, let us run the real ones with you.
