Listed at $799,900, which is right in line with comparable homes.
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $835K, learned from recent GTA sales.
The market behind the math:
Price per square foot: this home lists at $457/sqft against an area asking average of $526/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 12 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $725K. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.
What the listing highlights3 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
- Premium lot / gardens: lot size and privacy hold value and cannot be changed, verify frontage, depth, and any easements. Value driver
- Sold as-is / needs work: budget for renovation, the price should reflect the condition. Weigh carefully
Read this with carewhy it’s an estimate, not an appraisal
There were not many closely comparable homes right in Cookstown, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.
Based on 12 comparable homes that sold in Cookstown 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 $835K, which is where my estimate comes from.
Per square foot, these ask about $629/sqft; this home lists at $457/sqft. Size is part of the price story, not just the sticker.

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 5 whole-home leases in Cookstown signed at a median of $3,000 a month; adjusted to this home for size, beds and baths, and for where rents stood the month each signed, that is $2,339. 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.
