Listed at $1,199,000. Going by how homes in Markland Wood and the wider GTA have actually closed against their asking prices (about 97%, 17 local closings in 90 days), the likely sale price is near $1.16M, if it sells. A realistic range is $1.09M to $1.31M.
Independent value check: $1.23M. Without looking at the asking price, our model values the home itself in line with the ask (homes like it typically land between $1.15M and $1.29M).
Why $1.23M. The typical detached home sold in Markland Wood over the past year went for about $1.51M (44 sales). What sets this one apart:
- ▼ Lowers it stronglyIts tax bill, which follows the city's own assessment, is $5,362 a year; the typical home sold here pays about $6,600.
- ▲ Raises itThe listing describes it as fully renovated or newly built.
- ▼ Lowers it slightlyIt is 1,100 to 1,500 sq ft; the typical home sold here is 1,500 to 2,000.
Total price vs nearby homes. Likely closing about $1.16M, from 17 recent closings in this pocket.
The market behind the math:
About 1.6 months of inventory: 9 detached homes for sale in the area against 17 closings in the last 90 days. Under two months favours sellers, over four favours buyers.
Price per square foot: this home lists at $922/sqft against an area asking average of $1,026/sqft.
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 17 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $1.24M. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.

Read this with carewhy it’s an estimate, not an appraisal
There were not many closely comparable homes right in Markland Wood, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.
Based on 17 comparable homes that sold in Markland Wood over the past two years, from 94 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 $1.23M, which is where my estimate comes from.
Per square foot, these ask about $1,122/sqft; this home lists at $922/sqft. Size is part of the price story, not just the sticker.
