Know your number first. It tells you which of the 224 active listings are actually yours to consider.

The $500K to $750K band gives you the most to choose from, with 65 active listings. That is where a two-bedroom sits at a median of $544,900, and 56 of those two-bedroom homes are on the market now. Step up to three bedrooms and the median moves to $699,000 across 43 listings. Four bedrooms lands at $990,000, with 23 to pick from. The $1M to $1. 5M and $1. 5M to $2. 5M bands are nearly even, 53 and 54 listings, and this is where five and six-bedroom homes appear. Five beds run a median of $1,249,000, six beds $1,517,450. So the jump from a townhouse budget to a detached one is also a jump in bedroom count. More rooms, more land, a bigger number. Only 20 listings sit in the $750K to $1M band, so that middle stretch thins out fast. At the top, just 2 listings clear $2. 5M. Pick your band. The bedroom count follows the price almost every time here, and knowing that saves you from touring homes that were never in range.

Start by pulling the active listings in your range. If you are in the $500K to $750K stretch, that means sorting through 65 of them, and Chelsea Gardens alone accounts for 11. Detached buyers work a different set, 103 houses at a median of $1,549,000. Take the median build year of 1995 as your benchmark and note which homes fall on either side. Then book showings in one band only. Skip the others. Seeing what your number actually buys beats guessing from a screen, and it tells you fast whether to stretch or hold.
