Listed at $518,800, this home is about 17% above what comparable homes suggest. The number above is my independent estimate of value, not the asking price.
Priced above comparable homes overall, but the price per square foot ($944/sqft) is in line with the area, so you are paying for extra space rather than a premium.
In Mount Pleasant West lately, sellers have been getting about 95% of asking and homes sell in about 40 days.
Based on 71 similar homes that recently sold nearby, adjusted for size, beds, and baths.Median of 71 recently sold comparable homes — actual closing prices, not asks — adjusted for size, beds, and baths. The city (MPAC) assessment points to about $308K, 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, sold for $420K
- Bedrooms −$30K
- Adjusts to $390K
That comparable adjusts to $390K; the $442K estimate above is the median of all 71 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 North Toronto 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.
On location, this is a very walkable address with everyday errands close by. Merton Street is about a 2-minute walk away. Walkable, transit-friendly spots tend to hold value and widen your resale pool.

Estimates only, not a mortgage quote or pre-approval.

Actual rates, taxes, insurance, and closing costs vary by lender and property. Confirm every number with your mortgage professional.
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.
