Above comparables
$1.77Mest. value

Listed at $2,149,000, this home is about 21% above what comparable homes suggest. The number above is my independent estimate of value, not the asking price.

In East York lately, sellers have been getting about 104% of asking and homes sell in about 18 days.

This home has a walk-out basement — extra light, usable space, and income potential that comparable-sales math tends to under-price. Read this estimate as a conservative floor for it; I can pull walk-out comparables to pin the number.

Based on 23 similar homes that recently sold nearby, adjusted for size, beds, and baths.Median of 23 recently sold comparable homes — actual closing prices, not asks — adjusted for size, beds, and baths.

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 $1.53M
  • Adjusts to $1.53M

That comparable adjusts to $1.53M; the $1.77M estimate above is the median of all 23 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.

The assigned public school is Westwood Middle School. EQAO is only one input, and families here also look at French Immersion, boundary, and private options, the full 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.

  • 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
  • Open-concept layout: modern, sought-after flow. Lifestyle
