Listed at $699,900, which is about 16% below what comparable homes suggest.
Second read, from the city assessment: $824K. Close to the comparable-sales figure, which is what a firm read looks like.
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $837K, median of 11 comparables.
The market behind the math:
Price per square foot: this home lists at $778/sqft against an area asking average of $972/sqft.
- Walk-out basement apartment features. A finished 2 bed walk-out basement apartment with a separate entrance. A self-contained space for extended family, guests or potential income. A self-contained lower level is a premium that comparable-sales math under-prices, so read the estimate as a floor. Second-suite retrofit status is not verified. A buyer intending to rent should confirm requirements with the City of Toronto.
- Inground pool. Priced into the comparison on the assumption it is clean and modern. A pool costs more to build than resale pays back, and condition is the in-person call.
How this estimate is builtthe short version
I take the 11 most comparable recent listings 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 listing.
It’s grounded in comparable active listings. Lot, condition, and finishes are my in-person call, and the city (MPAC) assessment points to about $824K, a close match.
What the listing highlights5 points to weigh
Claims from the listing, worth confirming in person. I can book you a private showing.
- Renovated / rebuilt: recent work can mean fewer upfront costs, worth confirming the scope, quality, and that permits were pulled. Value driver
- Pool: lifestyle appeal, but adds maintenance, insurance, and resale is mixed. Weigh carefully
- Premium lot / gardens: lot size and privacy hold value and cannot be changed, verify frontage, depth, and any easements. Value driver
- Open-concept layout: modern, sought-after flow. Lifestyle
- Hardwood floors: quality hardwood is durable and broadly desirable. Lifestyle

Read this with carewhy it’s an estimate, not an appraisal
The listing states size as a wide range, so the size adjustment is approximate and this estimate is a rough read. I can confirm exact square footage to tighten it.
Based on 11 comparable homes nearby.
The closest active listings by size, beds, and price, so you can see what this home is up against.
Per square foot, these ask about $951/sqft; this home lists at $778/sqft. Size is part of the price story, not just the sticker.
