From the listing brokerage
THOMPSON'S GOT IT GOING ON! Classic bungalow charm, thoughtful upgrades, and a whole lot to love in the heart of Toronto's coveted Thompson Orchard neighbourhood. Sitting pretty on a generous 50 x 120 ft lot, this beautifully updated home offers over 2,100 sq ft of total living space (1,252 above grade), just a short stroll from the Kingsway's beloved shops, cafés and French bakeries. Southern sunshine is in no short supply, pouring through oversized windows into a handsome living room with custom built-ins, a Calacatta Vena marble fireplace and rich hardwood floors. The renovated kitchen brings the goods with heated floors, a gas range and stylish updates. An oversized primary bedroom features a brand-new walk-in closet and new thermal window overlooking the gardens, while the magazine-worthy bathroom serves up herringbone tile and a glass-enclosed shower. There's plenty more to love on the finished lower level, complete with a separate entrance and walk-out, cozy den, third bedroom or office, full bathroom, tiled mudroom and loads of custom storage. Perfect for guests, in-laws or a teenager craving a little independence. And the big-ticket stuff? DONE. New high-efficiency boiler, on-demand hot water, 200-amp electrical panel, two EV charging stations, new plumbing beneath the home and direct interior access to the built-in garage. All the important upgrades, minus the headaches. Perennial gardens, flagstone pathways, a sunny deck, gas BBQ hookup and automatic irrigation make summer living a breeze. Add sought-after school catchments (Sunnylea Jr, Norseman Middle, OLS, ECI and Bishop Allen), excellent transit and easy highway access, and the appeal is pretty hard to argue with. Classic where it counts. Modern where it matters. Thompson's got it going on, indeed.

What it costs to buy 147 Thompson Avenue
At the asking price of $1,489,000, 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 | $1,489,000 |
|---|---|
| Ontario land transfer tax | $26,255 |
| Toronto municipal land transfer tax | $26,255 |
| Both taxes | $52,510 |
| First-time buyer relief, if you qualify | up to $8,475 |
| Minimum down payment | $123,900 |
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) | $7,750 a year, about $646 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 550 detached house sales in the City of Toronto in August 2026, at a median price of $1,170,000 and an average of $1,525,749. This home is listed at $1,489,000, which is $319,000 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 radiant.
- 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, 50 by 120 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. The listing has a virtual tour, but 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.
