Listed at $3,588,000. Recent sales of homes like it put this one around $2.89M, so the ask is about 24% above what similar homes have sold for.
If it sells at this ask, expect about $3.34M, typically $3.22M to $3.47M: that is where homes here have closed against their asks in the last 90 days (5 closings).
The ask and what recent sales support disagree. When they differ this much, the asking price has been the closer guide about 87% of the time. Recent GTA homes first listed this far above their automated estimate sold at about 95% of the original ask, in a median 36 days, 26% of them after a price reduction (750 sales).
Longer on the market than typical. 125 days on the market against about 39 for homes like it here, and asking 24% above where comparable closings put it.
One thing to square: the homes for sale nearby are asking more than this one. My estimate is built on recent closings, and around here sellers have been asking more than buyers end up paying. So this can be the least expensive home on the street and still be priced ahead of where sales actually land.
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $2.89M, learned from recent GTA sales.
The market behind the math:
About 3.6 months of inventory: 6 detached homes for sale in the area against 5 closings in the last 90 days. Under two months favours sellers, over four favours buyers.
Price per square foot: this home lists at $844/sqft against an area asking average of $1,099/sqft. Size and $/sqft both feed the estimate above.
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 6 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $2.83M. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.
What the listing highlights2 points to weigh
Claims from the listing, worth confirming in person. I can book you a private showing.
- Pool: lifestyle appeal, but adds maintenance, insurance, and resale is mixed. Weigh carefully
- Tall ceilings: they transform how a home feels, worth confirming the actual heights room to room. Worth verifying

Its public catchment (Thornhill SS) 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
Priced above comparable homes overall, but the price per square foot ($844/sqft) is below the area, so you are paying for extra space rather than a premium.
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.
There were not many closely comparable homes right in Thornhill, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.
Based on 6 comparable homes that sold in Thornhill over the past two years, from 32 closings there.
Nothing closely matching this home is listed nearby right now, so these are the nearest detached listings on the market. Homes like this one have recently closed around $2.89M, which is where my estimate comes from.
Per square foot, these ask about $1,387/sqft; this home lists at $844/sqft. Size is part of the price story, not just the sticker.

Affordability & Mortgage
Income needed assumes a ~32% GDS ratio; weekly is mortgage principal & interest only. Price ÷ income is the home price over the income needed. Fixed reference assumptions so listings compare on equal footing, not a lending decision.

Investor snapshot
Thinking of this home as an investment? We will pull real comparable rents and run the full numbers with you.
Talk about the numbersThe last 7 whole-home leases in Thornhill signed at a median of $4,770 a month; adjusted to this home for size, beds and baths, and for where rents stood the month each signed, that is $6,456. 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.
