222 Chatham Avenue: semi-detached house for sale
$1,048,000
From the listing brokerage
There's a particular kind of house Torontonians picture when they say they want "a house." Classic brick. Front gable. A deep covered porch sitting just high enough above the sidewalk to wave at the neighbours without having to explain why you're still in your sweatpants at 2 p.m 222 has been that house since 1924, on a quiet stretch of The Pocket, the east-end enclave with so few ways in that through traffic doesn't bother (& the locals prefer it that way). Step inside, & you'll find more than 1,700SF, updated with restraint. Nobody got carried away with a sledgehammer or tried to turn a perfectly good century home into a generic white box. The main floor opens up front to back, but the living & dining rooms each keep their own sense of place, which is harder to pull off than it sounds. Warm hardwood runs throughout, while a generous front window & stained-glass panes give it distinctly old-Toronto good looks. At the back, the kitchen means business. Shaker cabinetry, dark countertops, integrated appliances & a peninsula where your guests will congregate. Every. Single.Time. There's also a window overlooking the back garden, a thrifty little pantry & a mudroom that will come in handy when your dog decides every puddle at the park deserves a personal visit. Upstairs, three bedrooms tuck neatly under the roofline, sloped ceilings included. Someone also had the good sense to address the 1920s' rather modest storage standards by adding custom wardrobes, built-in shelving, & pretty alcoves. Downstairs, the basement runs the full footprint with 6'4" ceilings. Plenty of potential for a recreation room, home gym or whatever else you've been promising yourself you'll make room for (assuming nobody in the family plays power forward). There's even space for a second bathroom. The lot measures 140 FT & is generous where it counts; off the deck, a private fenced garden has room for summer dinners, a little gardening ambition or a puppy finding its legs.

What it costs to buy 222 Chatham Avenue
At the asking price of $1,048,000, a buyer pays two land transfer taxes on closing: the Ontario tax and the City of Toronto's municipal tax. Both apply to every home inside the City.
| Asking price | $1,048,000 |
|---|---|
| Ontario land transfer tax | $17,435 |
| Toronto municipal land transfer tax | $17,435 |
| Both taxes | $34,870 |
| First-time buyer relief, if you qualify | up to $8,475 |
| Minimum down payment | $79,800 |
The down payment figure is the federal minimum: 5 percent of the first $500,000 and 10 percent of the rest. A lender can ask for more. These figures use the asking price, so they change if you pay more or less. Legal fees, title insurance and adjustments are extra: ask your lawyer for a written quote. This is general information, not legal or tax advice. Confirm the figures with a lawyer or accountant. You can change the price in our land transfer tax calculator and our mortgage calculator.
What it costs to own each month
| Property tax (2026) | $5,532 a year, about $461 a month |
|---|
That is before a mortgage payment, home insurance and utilities. The listing shows no monthly maintenance fee, so upkeep of the building and the lot is the owner's own cost.
How the asking price compares
TRREB recorded 159 semi-detached house sales in the City of Toronto in August 2026, at a median price of $981,000 and an average of $1,110,639. This home is listed at $1,048,000, which is $67,000 above that median.
The median covers every neighbourhood, size and condition in the City of Toronto, so it is a reference point and not a valuation of this home. Location, size, lot, parking and condition all move the price. Our Toronto house prices page has the figures for every home type.
What to check before you make an offer
- Book a home inspection. An inspector looks at the roof, foundation, wiring, plumbing and heating. The listing gives the heating as forced air.
- Have a lawyer search the title. A title search shows mortgages, liens and easements registered against the property. Ask whether a survey exists and whether it matches the lot on the listing, 15.58 by 140 feet.
- Ask about permits. Ask which renovations had building permits and whether those permits were closed.
- Confirm what is included. Appliances, light fixtures and window coverings are included only if the agreement says so. Ask whether the water heater or furnace is rented.
- Get your financing in writing. A lender looks at the property tax and heating costs as well as the price.
- See it in person. Photos do not show noise, light at different hours or the state of the street and the homes beside it.
Our first-time home buyer guide and our page for buyers walk through each step. This is general information, not legal advice. Confirm the details with a lawyer.
