Listed at $1,249,990. Going by how homes in Palmerston-Little Italy and the wider GTA have actually closed against their asking prices (about 99%, 14 local closings in 90 days), the likely sale price is near $1.24M, if it sells. A realistic range is $1.16M to $1.39M.
Independent value check: $1.47M. Without looking at the asking price, our model values the home itself about 17% above the ask (homes like it typically land between $1.37M and $1.54M).

How this estimate is builtthe short version
This figure comes from a model built on about 44,000 recent GTA sales. It weighs this home’s tax assessment, size, age, location and features against what homes like it actually sold for, including sales in this neighbourhood.
It never sees the asking price. The 14 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $1.20M. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.
What the listing highlights4 points to weigh
Claims from the listing, worth confirming in person. I can book you a private showing.
- Finished basement: added living space, worth checking ceiling height and that the work was permitted. Value driver
- Renovated / rebuilt: recent work can mean fewer upfront costs, worth confirming the scope, quality, and that permits were pulled. Value driver
- Open-concept layout: modern, sought-after flow. Lifestyle
- Hardwood floors: quality hardwood is durable and broadly desirable. Lifestyle
