Listed at $3,075,000. Going by how homes in Princess-Rosethorn and the wider GTA have actually closed against their asking prices (about 98%, 22 local closings in 90 days), the likely sale price is near $3.02M, if it sells. A realistic range is $2.83M to $3.40M.
Independent value check: $2.50M. Without looking at the asking price, our model values the home itself about 19% below the ask (homes like it typically land between $2.35M and $2.62M).
Why $2.50M. The typical detached home sold in Princess-Rosethorn over the past year went for about $1.78M (98 sales). What sets this one apart:
- ▲ Raises it stronglyIts tax bill, which follows the city's own assessment, is $11,922 a year; the typical home sold here pays about $8,400.
- ▲ Raises itIt is 3,500 to 5,000 sq ft; the typical home sold here is 1,750 to 2,250.
- ▲ Raises itThe listing describes it as fully renovated or newly built.
Total price vs nearby homes. Likely closing about $3.02M, from 22 recent closings in this pocket.
The market behind the math:
About 4.8 months of inventory: 35 detached homes for sale in the area against 22 closings in the last 90 days. Under two months favours sellers, over four favours buyers.
Price per square foot: this home lists at $724/sqft against an area asking average of $1,058/sqft.
- Separate-entrance basement apartment features. A finished 2 bed basement apartment with a separate entrance. A self-contained space for extended family, guests or potential income. In Princess-Rosethorn basements rarely rent out (6 of 63 recent detached leases were basement units), so buyers here treat a suite as family or nanny space rather than income. Value it for the living space, not the rent. Second-suite retrofit status is not verified. A buyer intending to rent should confirm requirements with the City of Toronto.
- Inground pool. Priced into the comparison on the assumption it is clean and modern. A pool costs more to build than resale pays back, and condition is the in-person call.
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 22 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $2.49M. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.
What the listing highlights5 points to weigh
Claims from the listing, worth confirming in person. I can book you a private showing.
- Separate entrance / basement suite: rental or in-law income potential, if it is legally registered and retrofit-compliant. Income potential
- Renovated / rebuilt: recent work can mean fewer upfront costs, worth confirming the scope, quality, and that permits were pulled. Value driver
- Upscale kitchen: a genuine value driver, verify the appliances, stone, and finishes in person. Value driver
- Pool: lifestyle appeal, but adds maintenance, insurance, and resale is mixed. Weigh carefully
- Premium lot / gardens: lot size and privacy hold value and cannot be changed, verify frontage, depth, and any easements. Value driver

Read this with carewhy it’s an estimate, not an appraisal
Priced above comparable homes overall, but the price per square foot ($724/sqft) is below the area, so you are paying for extra space rather than a premium.
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.
There were not many closely comparable homes right in Princess-Rosethorn, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.

Investor snapshot
About the suite: in Princess-Rosethorn basements rarely rent out (6 of 63 recent detached leases were basement units), so the figure above does not count it as income. Buyers here use a suite as family or nanny space.
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 34 whole-home leases in Princess-Rosethorn signed at a median of $5,243 a month; adjusted to this home for size, beds and baths, and for where rents stood the month each signed, that is $7,518. 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.
