Tucked into a quiet family-friendly neighbourhood, 116 Highridge Avenue is the kind of home that instantly feels welcoming the moment you arrive. Fresh landscaping, timeless curb appeal, and a beautifully updated exterior set the tone. Inside, the kitchen, dining, and living areas flow seamlessly together, making the heart of the home feel both stylish and functional. Wide-plank flooring, crown moulding, and pot lights create a warm, polished feel throughout, while oversized windows fill the space with natural light. Three spacious bedrooms, along with a beautifully renovated 5-piece bathroom featuring a double vanity, shiplap feature wall creates an atmosphere that elevates everyday living. Downstairs, the fully finished lower level adds incredible flexibility. A fourth bedroom, brand new 3-piece bathroom, and separate entrance make it ideal for growing families, overnight guests, teenagers craving their own retreat, a home office, or even in-law potential. What truly makes this property special, though, is the setting. Backing directly onto a park and school, with green space beside the home, the backyard feels unexpectedly private and open - a rare find at this price point. Fully fenced and ready for summer nights, kids playing, pets running freely, or quiet morning coffees, it's a space you'll enjoy year-round. With an attached garage, ample parking, and updates completed from top to bottom, this is the kind of home doesn't come around often.

Listed at $829,900, about 8% below our estimate of $904K (homes like it typically land between $847K and $947K).
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $904K, learned from recent GTA sales.
The market behind the math:
About 7 months of inventory: 7 detached homes for sale in the area against 3 closings in the last 90 days. Under two months favours sellers, over four favours buyers.
Price per square foot: this home lists at $638/sqft against an area asking average of $530/sqft.
- Separate-entrance basement apartment features. A finished 1 bed basement apartment with a separate entrance. A self-contained space for extended family, guests or potential income. In Riverdale basements rarely rent out (2 of 8 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 Town of Hamilton.
- Park / green-space backing. The listing says this home backs onto or abuts a park or green space. That privacy is priced into the comparison. What is actually behind the fence, and how the lot sits against it, is my 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 15 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $703K. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.

- Renovated / rebuilt: recent work can mean fewer upfront costs, worth confirming the scope, quality, and that permits were pulled. Value driver
Read this with carewhy it’s an estimate, not an appraisal
Below comparable homes on total price, yet the price per square foot ($638/sqft) is above the area, which usually points to a smaller or more efficient layout.
There were not many closely comparable homes right in Riverdale, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.
Based on 15 comparable homes that sold in Riverdale over the past two years, from 31 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 $904K, which is where my estimate comes from.
Per square foot, these ask about $482/sqft; this home lists at $638/sqft. Size is part of the price story, not just the sticker.

Affordability & Mortgage
Income needed assumes a ~32% GDS ratio; weekly is mortgage principal & interest only. Price ÷ income is the home price over the income needed. Fixed reference assumptions so listings compare on equal footing, not a lending decision.

Investor snapshot
About the suite: in Riverdale basements rarely rent out (2 of 8 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 5 whole-home leases in Riverdale signed at a median of $2,000 a month; adjusted to this home for size, beds and baths, and for where rents stood the month each signed, that is $2,725. 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.
