A cottage in the city with the GO Train quite literally next door. Tucked among mature trees and lush greenery, this detached home offers a peaceful setting that feels worlds away from Toronto, yet Long Branch GO Station puts downtown just minutes away. The home has been thoughtfully updated throughout, including a newly fully waterproofed basement with a lifetime warranty, featuring carbon fibre foundation reinforcement strips for added structural stability and peace of mind. Inside, you'll also find a bright renovated kitchen with quartz countertops, gas range and stainless steel appliances, an updated 4-piece bathroom, hardwood floors, pot lights and a beautiful wood staircase. Step outside to a private backyard with no rear neighbours, a large south-facing second-floor terrace and parking for three vehicles. Marie Curtis Park, the beach, Lake Ontario and waterfront trails are approximately a 10-minute walk away, with Lakeshore's shops, cafés and restaurants close by. Spend the afternoon surrounded by nature, then hop on the GO Train for dinner, a concert or a game downtown. City convenience without giving up the space, privacy and character that make this home feel like an escape.

Independent value check: $865K. Without looking at the asking price, our model values the home itself about 14% below the ask (homes like it typically land between $810K and $906K).

Total price vs nearby homes. Likely closing about $978K, from 17 recent closings in this pocket.
The market behind the math:
About 2.8 months of inventory: 16 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 $769/sqft against an area asking average of $965/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 $821K. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.
What the listing highlights3 points to weigh
Claims from the listing, worth confirming in person. I can book you a private showing.
- Renovated / rebuilt: recent work can mean fewer upfront costs, worth confirming the scope, quality, and that permits were pulled. Value driver
- Premium lot / gardens: lot size and privacy hold value and cannot be changed, verify frontage, depth, and any easements. Value driver
- Hardwood floors: quality hardwood is durable and broadly desirable. Lifestyle

Read this with carewhy it’s an estimate, not an appraisal
Priced above comparable homes overall, but the price per square foot ($769/sqft) is below the area, so you are paying for extra space rather than a premium.
There were not many closely comparable homes right in Alderwood, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.
Based on 17 comparable homes that sold in Alderwood over the past two years, from 173 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 $865K, which is where my estimate comes from.
Per square foot, these ask about $997/sqft; this home lists at $769/sqft. Size is part of the price story, not just the sticker.

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 numbersThe last 37 whole-home leases in Alderwood signed at a median of $3,279 a month; adjusted to this home for size, beds and baths, and for where rents stood the month each signed, that is $3,667. 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.
