Market Overview: Midtown & Uptown Toronto
This week’s market data highlights a range of activity levels across different neighbourhoods, with some areas seeing strong movement while others experienced little to no transactions. Here are the key takeaways:
The Annex led the market with the most transactions (7), all condos except for one semi-detached home.
Mount Pleasant East & West had the second-highest number of transactions (6), including 4 condos, 1 detached home, and 1 semi-detached home.

Rosedale/Moore Park also had no recorded sales this week, indicating a slowdown in activity.
Yonge & St. Clair had only 2 transactions, both condos, and no sales above list price.
Lawrence Park North & South saw high price points but only 2 transactions.
Now, let’s break down each neighbourhood in detail.
Lawrence Park North & South: Market Holding Steady
Key Stats
Average Sold Price: $1,670,000
Average Days on Market: 7 days
Number of Transactions: 2
Sold Above List Price: 0%
Property Breakdown: 1 condo, 1 detached home
Market Summary
Lawrence Park North & South remains one of the premier luxury markets in Midtown Toronto. With an average sold price of $1.67 million, buyers continue to seek high-end homes in this affluent area.
The low days on market (7 days) indicate strong buyer demand, with properties moving quickly compared to other neighbourhoods. However, with just 2 transactions, overall market activity was slow. No homes sold above list price, suggesting that while demand exists, buyers are being strategic with their offers.
Yonge & Eglinton: Balanced Market
Key Stats
Average Sold Price: $855,933
Average Days on Market: 13 days
Number of Transactions: 3
Sold Above List Price: 33.3%
Property Breakdown: 2 condos, 1 semi-detached home
Market Summary
Yonge & Eglinton continues to be a high-demand area, attracting a mix of buyers looking for both condo and freehold options. The average sold price of $855,933 makes it a more affordable Midtown alternative compared to luxury neighbourhoods like Lawrence Park and The Annex.
With one-third of sales going above list price, competition remains present, particularly in the semi-detached home segment. The relatively low days on market (13 days) also suggest a steady, balanced market where buyers are actively engaging.
Mount Pleasant East & West: Strongest Activity in Midtown
Key Stats:
Average Sold Price: $1,128,167
Average Days on Market: 17 days
Number of Transactions: 6
Sold Above List Price: 66.7%
Property Breakdown: 4 condos, 1 detached home, 1 semi-detached home
Market Summary
With 6 transactions, Mount Pleasant East & West saw one of the highest levels of activity in Midtown Toronto this week. The presence of multiple property types, including 4 condo sales and 2 freehold properties, indicates a diverse range of buyer demand.
The 66.7% of properties selling above list price is a key indicator of a competitive market, especially for condos, which are seeing strong interest. With an average sold price of $1.13 million, this neighbourhood remains an attractive option for both buyers and investors.
Leaside: Limited Activity with Just One Condo Sale
Key Stats
Average Sold Price: $915,000
Average Days on Market: 10 days
Number of Transactions: 1
Sold Above List Price: 0%
Property Breakdown: 1 condo
Market Summary
Leaside had a quiet week, with only one recorded transaction—a condo sale for $915,000. While the 10 days on market suggest properties are selling relatively quickly, the lack of overall sales indicates limited movement in this highly sought-after neighbourhood.
With no detached, semi-detached, or townhome sales this week, it will be important to monitor whether buyer interest shifts in the coming weeks.
Forest Hill North & South: No Sales This Week
There were no recorded transactions in Forest Hill North & South this past week. This could be due to limited listings, longer selling cycles for high-end properties, or buyer hesitation in the luxury market.
Given the prestige of this area, expect demand to remain strong in the long run, even if short-term activity fluctuates.
Yonge & St. Clair: Modest Condo Activity
Key Stats
Average Sold Price: $680,000
Average Days on Market: 19 days
Number of Transactions: 2
Sold Above List Price: 0%
Property Breakdown: 2 condos
Market Summary
Yonge & St. Clair had two condo sales this week, averaging $680,000. This remains a popular location for professionals and downsizers looking for premium condo living close to downtown.
With 19 days on market, these sales took slightly longer than in other Midtown neighbourhoods, and no properties sold above list price.
Rosedale/Moore Park: No Sales This Week
Like Forest Hill, Rosedale/Moore Park had no recorded transactions this past week. As one of the city’s most prestigious neighbourhoods, properties in this area typically have longer selling cycles and fewer transactions.
High price points and limited inventory likely contributed to this week’s market inactivity.
The Annex: The Busiest Market This Week
Key Stats
Average Sold Price: $1,853,136
Average Days on Market: 57 days
Number of Transactions: 7
Sold Above List Price: 0%
Property Breakdown: 6 condos, 1 semi-detached home
Market Summary
The Annex was the busiest neighbourhood in Midtown/Uptown Toronto, recording 7 transactions. The majority of sales were condos (6 sales), with one semi-detached home also changing hands.
Despite the high number of sales, no properties sold above list price, and the 57-day average days on market is significantly longer than in other neighbourhoods. This suggests buyers are being more cautious and selective in this area.
