Our TakeTeam Asgarian · Broker
In line
$1.83Mest. value

Listed at $1,895,000 with no offer date, so the ask is the seller’s number, and homes priced this way sell close to it. My read is $1.83M, typically $1.64M to $1.95M. Comparable closings on their own put this home around $1.69M, so the ask carries a premium over the comparables: the seller is pricing in the finishes, the lot, or room to negotiate. That gap is your negotiating room.

Second read, from the city assessment: $2.12M. That is about 25% above the comparable-sales figure. When my two methods disagree this much, the answer usually sits between them and something about this home is not in the comparables (the lot, the condition, a rebuild). I would want to see it before leaning on either number.

Price per square foot: this home lists at $1,083/sqft against an area asking average of $952/sqft. Size and $/sqft both feed the estimate above.

  • Walk-out basement apartment features. A finished 1 bed walk-out basement apartment. A self-contained space for extended family, guests or potential income. In Cabbagetown-South St. James Town basements rarely rent out (1 of 31 recent detached leases were basement units), so buyers here treat a suite as family or nanny space rather than income. Value it for the living space, not the rent. Second-suite retrofit status is not verified. A buyer intending to rent should confirm requirements with the City of Toronto.
How this estimate is builtthe short version

I take the 21 most comparable recent sales nearby and adjust each one to this home for the real differences (size, beds, baths, garage, lot frontage, a ravine backing, an inground pool), then use the median, which is steadier than leaning on any single sale.

It’s grounded in recent closing prices, not asking prices. Lot, condition, and finishes are my in-person call, and the city (MPAC) assessment points to about $2.12M, a bit higher.

What the listing highlights3 points to weigh

Claims from the listing, worth confirming in person. I can book you a private showing.

  • Recent major systems: lower near-term capital costs, ask for the ages and any warranties. Value driver
  • Upscale kitchen: a genuine value driver, verify the appliances, stone, and finishes in person. Value driver
  • Tall ceilings: they transform how a home feels, worth confirming the actual heights room to room. Worth verifying
