Listed at $1,825,000. Going by how homes in Islington Woods and the wider GTA have actually closed against their asking prices (about 97%, 13 local closings in 90 days), the likely sale price is near $1.77M, if it sells. A realistic range is $1.66M to $2.00M.
Independent value check: $2.02M. Without looking at the asking price, our model values the home itself about 11% above the ask (homes like it typically land between $1.89M and $2.11M).
Why $2.02M. The typical detached home sold in Islington Woods over the past year went for about $1.96M (49 sales). What sets this one apart:
- ▼ Lowers itIts tax bill, which follows the city's own assessment, is $8,404 a year; the typical home sold here pays about $9,200.
- ▲ Raises itIt is 3,500 to 5,000 sq ft; the typical home sold here is 3,000 to 3,500.
- ▲ Raises it slightly4+3 bedrooms and 5 baths, against 4+1 and 4 typically.
- ▲ Raises it slightlyThe listing describes it as fully renovated or newly built.
Total price vs nearby homes. Likely closing about $1.77M, from 13 recent closings in this pocket.
The market behind the math:
About 1.4 months of inventory: 6 detached homes for sale in the area against 13 closings in the last 90 days. Under two months favours sellers, over four favours buyers.
Price per square foot: this home lists at $429/sqft against an area asking average of $593/sqft.
- Separate-entrance basement apartment features. A finished 3 bed basement apartment with a separate entrance and a second kitchen. A self-contained space for extended family, guests or potential income. In Islington Woods basements rarely rent out (2 of 25 recent detached leases were basement units), so buyers here treat a suite as family or nanny space rather than income. Value it for the living space, not the rent. Second-suite retrofit status is not verified. A buyer intending to rent should confirm requirements with the City of Vaughan.
- Park / green-space backing. This home is described as backing onto a ravine or green setting, and the listing says so too. That privacy is priced into the comparison. What is actually behind the fence, and how the lot sits against it, is my in-person call.
- 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
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 13 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $1.98M. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.
What the listing highlights5 points to weigh
Claims from the listing, worth confirming in person. I can book you a private showing.
- Separate entrance / basement suite: rental or in-law income potential, if it is legally registered and retrofit-compliant. Income potential
- Finished basement: added living space, worth checking ceiling height and that the work was permitted. Value driver
- Renovated / rebuilt: recent work can mean fewer upfront costs, worth confirming the scope, quality, and that permits were pulled. Value driver
- Upscale kitchen: a genuine value driver, verify the appliances, stone, and finishes in person. Value driver
- Pool: lifestyle appeal, but adds maintenance, insurance, and resale is mixed. Weigh carefully
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.

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
About the suite: in Islington Woods basements rarely rent out (2 of 25 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 numbersThe last 5 whole-home leases in Islington Woods signed at a median of $8,562 a month; adjusted to this home for size, beds and baths, and for where rents stood the month each signed, that is $8,712. 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.
