Worth a personal read

Heads up: the asking price here sits well below what comparable listings suggest. In this market that usually means it is priced to draw multiple offers, so plan for competition and a final number above asking. I would not put an automatic figure on this one. Tell me you are interested and I will pull the most comparable recent leases and give you a straight answer on what it will really take.

Its public catchment (Brown Junior Public School) tests around the provincial average, a steady, family-friendly draw. The full EQAO breakdown is below.

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.
