Our TakeTeam Asgarian · Broker
A small discount is typical
$1.68Mlikely sale price

Listed at $1,699,000. Going by how homes in Stonegate-Queensway and the wider GTA have actually closed against their asking prices (about 99%, 36 local closings in 90 days), the likely sale price is near $1.68M, if it sells. A realistic range is $1.57M to $1.89M.

Independent value check: $1.37M. Without looking at the asking price, our model values the home itself about 19% below the ask (homes like it typically land between $1.29M and $1.44M).

Why $1.37M. The typical detached home sold in Stonegate-Queensway over the past year went for about $1.53M (143 sales). What sets this one apart:

  • ▲ Raises itIts tax bill, which follows the city's own assessment, is $7,646 a year; the typical home sold here pays about $7,000.
  • ▼ Lowers itIt is 700 to 1,100 sq ft; the typical home sold here is 1,100 to 1,500.
  • ▼ Lowers it slightly2 bedrooms and 2 baths, against 3+1 and 2 typically.

Longer on the market than typical. 214 days on the market against about 20 for homes like it here, and asking 24% above where comparable closings put it.

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 36 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $1.43M. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.

  • Hardwood floors: quality hardwood is durable and broadly desirable. Lifestyle
  • Transit / schools nearby: convenience and resale support, verify the exact distances and school catchment. Value driver
Schools & getting aroundcatchment and transit

On schools, this address is zoned for Sunnylea Junior School, one of the higher-rated public schools in the area. A strong catchment tends to hold value and widen your resale pool, especially with family buyers.

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 36 comparable homes that sold in Stonegate-Queensway over the past two years, from 301 closings there.
