There is a lot to like about this bright and spacious two-bedroom, three-bathroom loft. Spanning two levels, Suite 506 offers over 1,000 square feet of living space and feels even larger thanks to the dramatic 17-foot ceilings in the dining room and expansive floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall windows that flood the space with natural light. The updated kitchen features custom Pedini cabinetry, quartz countertops, and premium Bosch appliances. Both the kitchen and dining area provide direct access to a large, covered balcony that is a perfect extension of the living space. The spacious living room is enhanced by custom built-in shelving and a custom integrated entertainment unit, creating both functionality and style.

It includes a walk-in closet, a 4-piece ensuite with a window, and a walkout to a private balcony. The second bedroom also offers a walk-in closet and its own 4-piece ensuite, ideal for guests or family. Additional upgrades include custom under-stair storage, sleek glass stair railings, and a recently renovated main floor powder room featuring new tile, vanity, and toilet, along with the addition of extra storage space. The unit includes one parking space and one locker. Please note "other" in room details is the balcony.

Listed at $828,000, this home is tracking about 21% below a wider set of listings, though close matches were thin, so it is worth confirming with a precise CMA rather than reading it as a clear deal. The number above is my independent estimate of value, not the asking price.
There are only a few closely comparable homes right here, so this is a broad read from wider listings in the area. Ask me for a precise CMA before relying on it.
Based on 90 similar homes nearby, adjusted for size, beds, and baths.Median of 90 comparable active listings, adjusted for size, beds, and baths. The city (MPAC) assessment points to about $763K, lower 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, listed at $649K
- Bathrooms +$15K
- Adjusts to $664K
That comparable adjusts to $664K; the $1.05M estimate above is the median of all 90 comparables, which is steadier than any single home.This uses comparable active listings, not sold prices. Lot, condition, and finishes are my in-person call, and I can run a full CMA with recent solds.
Its public catchment (Davisville Junior Public School) tests around the provincial average, a steady, family-friendly draw. The full EQAO breakdown is below.
On location, this is a very walkable address with everyday errands close by. Yonge St at Merton St North Side is about a 1-minute walk away. Walkable, transit-friendly spots tend to hold value and widen your resale pool.

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.
- Renovated / rebuilt: recent work can mean fewer upfront costs, worth confirming the scope, quality, and that permits were pulled.
- Addition / added square footage: more space lifts value when it is permitted and well integrated, verify the permits.
- Tall ceilings: they transform how a home feels, worth confirming the actual heights room to room.

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.
