Fully renovated inside and out, this is a 4+2 bedroom family home in one of Aurora Highlands' established, tree-lined pockets - completely redone over the past two years, down to the exterior. The home was re-clad in stucco, and a cathedral ceiling opens up the front porch the moment you arrive. Step inside to a carpet-free interior with hardwood through the principal rooms, designer ceramic backsplash in the kitchen, and zebra blinds throughout that give the home a clean, modern edge. The main floor flows around a kitchen with a breakfast area and French doors to the garden. Off the back, a glass-and-wood enclosed, insulated three-season sunroom - room for a patio set, morning sun, and quiet coffee. Upstairs, four bedrooms include a large primary with walk-in closet and ensuite, plus a renovation-added second-floor washroom. Downstairs, the finished basement is built for living: a spacious open rec area sized for a 100" projector screen and full home-theatre setup - an easy family entertainment hub - plus two more bedrooms and its own full washroom. Five washrooms in total. Outside, the garden is the quiet showpiece: a small pond for fish and water plants, and beds planted for non-stop blooms through summer and fall. An interlocked driveway leads to a 3-car garage with parking for five more. Walk to parks, transit, and top-rated schools. Nothing left to do but move in.

How this lease stacks up against the local rental market
Estimated Monthly Budget
Things to Confirm Before Signing
· Are utilities included, or separate?
· How many parking spots are included?
· Is the landlord open to a 1-year or 2-year lease?
· Are pets and small renovations (paint, hooks) allowed?
· When was the last rent increase, if there is a prior tenant?
Utility estimates are approximate and vary by season, habits, and what the landlord includes. Always confirm inclusions with the listing agent.
Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Above Market Rent
At $5,000/mo, this is asking above the typical 4-bedroom rent of ~$4,200/mo in Aurora. That premium needs to be justified — newer finishes, included parking, a premium location, or utilities included. I'll help you assess whether it's worth it or whether there's room to negotiate.
Market Position
At 15 days on site, this property has had reasonable exposure. It hasn't sold immediately (which often indicates overpricing), but isn't languishing either. There's likely room for a 3-5% negotiation from asking price.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Aurora are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
Excellent Flexibility
With 6 bedrooms, you have genuine flexibility. Beyond the master and kids' rooms, you can have a dedicated home office, guest room, hobby space, or even rental income potential. In today's work-from-home era, extra bedrooms add significant value. Properties with 5+ bedrooms are relatively rare in Aurora.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 5 bathrooms, morning routines are much smoother. Multiple bathrooms significantly improve daily livability and are a major selling point for resale. Buyers consistently pay more for adequate bathroom counts - this is a strong feature.
Lease Terms to Negotiate
Don't just focus on the monthly rent — the lease terms matter just as much. I always advise my rental clients to clarify: what's included (parking, storage, utilities), the lease length options, the landlord's policy on renewals, and whether small personalizations like painting are permitted. These details can make or break your experience over 12–24 months.
