Worth a personal read

Heads up: the asking price here sits well below what comparable listings suggest. In this market that usually means it is priced to draw multiple offers, so plan for competition and a final number above asking. I would not put an automatic figure on this one. Tell me you are interested and I will pull the most comparable recent leases and give you a straight answer on what it will really take.

The assigned public school is Beaumonde Heights Junior Middle School. EQAO is only one input, and families here also look at French Immersion, boundary, and private options, the full breakdown is below.

On location, this is a very walkable address with everyday errands close by. Islington Ave at Albion Rd is about a 2-minute walk away. Walkable, transit-friendly spots tend to hold value and widen your resale pool.

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.

  • Separate entrance / basement suite: rental or in-law income potential, if it is legally registered and retrofit-compliant.
  • Walk-out basement: natural light and strong in-law or income potential.
  • Currently tenanted: confirm the lease terms and vacant-possession timing before closing.
  • Income potential
  • Worth verifying
