Detached homes for sale in Toronto, the GTA and across Ontario
DetachedConnect is a real estate site built around one kind of home: the detached house. That covers 2-storey family homes, bungalows, backsplits, sidesplits and 3-storey infills, from starter homes to luxury estates, in cities across Ontario.
Most searches start with a place. The cities buyers ask about most are Toronto, Mississauga, Vaughan, Markham, Oakville and Hamilton. Each city page points you to the neighbourhoods where the detached homes are.
With a detached home, the land matters as much as the house. The lot size and frontage, the age of the roof, furnace and windows, and whether the basement is finished or has its own entrance all affect what you pay and how you live, so we explain them in plain language and give you a checklist to use before you make an offer.
Browse for as long as you like. When you want to see a home in person, ask about a street, or find out what your own detached home is worth, call, text or use live chat. A detached home specialist answers.
Common questions
What kinds of homes are on DetachedConnect?
Detached houses only: 2-storey homes, bungalows, backsplits, sidesplits, 1½-storey and 3-storey homes, across Toronto, the GTA and the rest of Ontario. No condos, no townhouses, no shared walls.
Why buy a detached home?
You own the house and the land it sits on, with no shared walls and no monthly condo fee. You can renovate, add a garden suite or finish the basement (with the city's approval), and land has historically held its value better than any other part of a home.
What should I check before I make an offer?
The lot size and frontage, the age of the roof, furnace, air conditioner and windows, the electrical panel, any signs of water in the basement, and whether a finished basement or second unit was done with permits. A home inspection condition covers most of it.
Is it free to use?
Yes. Browsing, listing alerts, the calculators and a detached home evaluation are all free, with no obligation.
Who is behind DetachedConnect?
The site is run by Will Balo, a Realtor with RE/MAX Experts who works with detached home buyers and sellers. DetachedConnect is not a brokerage. When you are ready to buy or sell, you work with one of our preferred realtors who specialize in detached homes.
