In line
$1.72Mest. value

Listed at $1,699,000 with no offer date, so the ask is the seller’s number, and homes priced this way sell close to it. My read is $1.72M, typically $1.70M to $1.76M. Comparable closings on their own put this home around $1.77M, which agrees with the ask, so this is a firm read.

Second read, from the city assessment: $1.74M. Similar homes sold in line with their assessments, and this one lands close to the comparable-sales figure, which is what a firm read looks like.

One thing to square: this home asks more than the ones for sale nearby, yet my estimate still puts it below recent closings. That usually means the nearby listings are smaller or simpler homes, so the sticker comparison undersells what this one is.

Price per square foot: this home lists at $618/sqft against an area asking average of $729/sqft. Size and $/sqft both feed the estimate above.

  • Walk-out basement. Extra light, usable space, and income potential, so the estimate is a conservative floor for it.
How this estimate is builtthe short version

I take the 5 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 $1.74M, a close match.

Schools & getting aroundcatchment and transit

Its public catchment (Kew Beach Junior Public School) tests around the provincial average, a steady, family-friendly draw. The full EQAO breakdown is below.

Read this with carewhy it’s an estimate, not an appraisal

There were not many closely comparable homes right in The Beaches, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.

Based on 4 homes sold on this street over the past two years, plus 1 nearby in The Beaches, from 20 closings in The Beaches.

What sellers nearby are askingCurrently listed nearby in The Beaches · asking prices
$1.14Mavg asking

Nothing closely matching this home is listed nearby right now, so these are the nearest townhouse listings on the market. Homes like this one have recently closed around $1.77M, which is where my estimate comes from.

Per square foot, these ask about $927/sqft; this home lists at $618/sqft. Size is part of the price story, not just the sticker.

About the suite: in The Beaches basements rarely rent out (2 of 15 recent detached leases were basement units), so the figure above does not count it as income. Buyers here use a suite as family or nanny space.

Thinking of this home as an investment? We will pull real comparable rents and run the full numbers with you.

Talk about the numbers

The last 8 whole-home leases in The Beaches signed at a median of $4,700 a month; adjusted to this home for size, beds and baths, and for where rents stood the month each signed, that is $6,545. The gross yield above is on the asking price, before taxes and upkeep; the cap rate is after them. A finished basement or second suite can push real rent above it. Taxes, fees, and vacancy vary by property, and cap rate is before financing.
