About this home
Welcome to a refined, low-maintenance lifestyle in Burlington's coveted LaSalle community. Spanning approx. 1,600 sq ft of total living space, this exceptionally broad 2-storey townhouse is an elegant sanctuary perfectly tailored for condo upsizers desiring a private garden oasis, or downsizers refusing to compromise on spacious principal rooms and basement flexibility. Over $65,000 in thoughtful, premium recent upgrades brings immense peace of mind and modern comfort to this turnkey residence. An inviting foyer adorned with sleek, large-format slate-look tile introduces a fresh, neutral palette with professionally-removed popcorn ceilings and stylish crown mouldings. At the heart of the main level sits a masterfully-renovated kitchen, dressed in premium stone countertops, a timeless marble mosaic backsplash, and stainless-steel appliances. Rich hardwood flooring flows effortlessly through the spacious dining room and into an expansive living room, which walks out to a private, fully fenced courtyard patio featuring new concrete slab work-an idyllic retreat for outdoor living. The upper level boasts a magnificent primary suite transformation; originally a 3-bedroom layout, it was expertly reconfigured to create a massive peaceful retreat, complete with a custom accent wall, a large walk-in closet, and a luxurious, modern 3-piece ensuite bath. Offering valuable added depth, the open-concept lower-level recreation room serves as the ideal secondary lounge or executive office, benefiting from newly-insulated walls for maximum energy efficiency.***Extensively-updated mechanicals include a new furnace, AC, owned tankless water heater, and a new dishwasher. Complete with 2 owned parking spaces, this commuter-friendly location sits just minutes from the Burlington GO Station and the QEW, while remaining mere steps to the Francis Trail system, Mapleview Mall, lush parks, and Burlington's beautiful beachfront.

Listed at $599,888, this home is within the range of comparable homes, on the higher side. The number above is my independent estimate of value, not the asking price.
There were not many closely comparable homes right in LaSalle, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.
Based on 7 similar homes nearby, adjusted for size, beds, and baths.Median of 7 comparable active listings, adjusted for size, beds, and baths. The city (MPAC) assessment points to about $700K, higher than the comparables and worth a second look.
How I got there
Here is the exact math behind the estimate. I start from the closest comparable listing and adjust for the real differences (size, beds, baths) to land on a like-for-like value for this home.
- Closest comparable, listed at $600K
- Bedrooms −$30K
- Bathrooms +$15K
- Adjusts to $585K
That comparable adjusts to $585K; the $543K estimate above is the median of all 7 comparables, which is steadier than any single home.This uses comparable active listings, not sold prices. Lot, condition, and finishes are my in-person call, and I can run a full CMA with recent solds.
On location, it is moderately walkable, so some daily errands are within reach and for the rest you will likely drive. 670 Francis is about a 1-minute walk away.
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $543K, median of 7 comparables.
What the listing highlightsThese are claims from the listing. The only way to know for sure is to see it in person, and I am happy to book you a private showing.
- Renovated / rebuilt: recent work can mean fewer upfront costs, worth confirming the scope, quality, and that permits were pulled.
- Recent major systems: lower near-term capital costs, ask for the ages and any warranties.
- Premium lot / gardens: lot size and privacy hold value and cannot be changed, verify frontage, depth, and any easements.
- Open-concept layout: modern, sought-after flow.
- Hardwood floors: quality hardwood is durable and broadly desirable.

Rates and programs change often. We will connect you with a trusted mortgage professional and build a plan that fits your budget and goals.
Estimates only, not a mortgage quote or pre-approval.

Actual rates, taxes, insurance, and closing costs vary by lender and property. Confirm every number with your mortgage professional.
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 numbersEstimates only. Rent is modelled on above-grade size and local norms, so a finished basement or second suite (a separate entrance often means one) can push real rent well above this. Taxes, fees, and vacancy vary by property, and cap rate is before financing. A starting point, not a final number, let us run the real ones with you.
