Building Summary & Rental Market Overview

Building TypePurpose-Built Rental
Year Completed1966
Total Suites84
DeveloperNot Disclosed

55 Isabella at 55 Isabella Street in Toronto's Cabbagetown neighbourhood is a fully occupied residential building completed in 1966 with 84 suites and no recorded developer. As of August 31, 2026, two units are actively listed for rent, representing a 2.4 percent availability rate across the tower. Leasing activity has been modest but steady: one lease closed in the trailing 30 days with an average time on market of 11 days, and one additional lease sealed in the 90-day window at the same pace.

The two active one-bedroom suites ask $2,495 per month at 650 square feet, translating to $3.84 per square foot. That asking rate sits above the building's realized lease benchmark of $3.52 per square foot, even though the nominal monthly rent is lower than the $2,995 average closed lease. The gap resolves through footprint: current listings average 650 square feet compared to 850 square feet in historical leases, meaning the active inventory is notably more compact. Against the broader Cabbagetown submarket asking benchmark of $4.33 per square foot, 55 Isabella's rate runs 11.3 percent below the neighbourhood norm.

Marketing friction at 55 Isabella remains low. Active listings have averaged 16 days on market, well under the Cabbagetown submarket benchmark of 22 days, and the single closed lease in the trailing 30 days moved in 11 days. Across all tracked historical leases, tenants closed at asking with zero dollar concession, indicating a balanced negotiation environment. Active inventory depth is limited to two one-bedroom units, offering renters a small selection rather than a broad layout menu. No two-bedroom or larger suites are currently available for lease.

Both listings average $2,495 per month across 650 square feet, yielding a rate of $3.84 per square foot. No other bedroom tiers are currently listed, so renters seeking two-bedroom or larger configurations must look to the broader Cabbagetown submarket.

55 Isabella's active asking rents range from $2,495 to $2,495 per month, producing a dollar spread of $0 and a percentage spread of 0 percent. The median asking rent is $2,495 per month. The entry-level suite is a one-bedroom at 650 square feet and $3.84 per square foot, and the peak asking suite is also a one-bedroom at the identical 650 square feet and $3.84 per square foot, reflecting a uniform pricing structure across the two available units.

How much extra do parking spaces and dens cost at 55 Isabella?

Den premium data for 55 Isabella cannot be quantified from the current active sample, as no paired den versus non-den listings exist to isolate a marginal cost per square foot. Parking stall premiums also cannot be reliably isolated from the available data, and no verified monthly parking fee can be quoted for the building's active inventory.

How do asking rents at 55 Isabella compare to local and municipal benchmarks?

55 Isabella's active asking rent of $2,495 per month and rate of $3.84 per square foot both sit below the Cabbagetown submarket asking benchmarks of $3,178 per month and $4.33 per square foot.

Leased Transaction Insights & Questions

How many suites were leased at 55 Isabella last month, and how fast did they rent?

55 Isabella closed one lease in the trailing 30 days at an average 11 days on market, versus 22 days for the Cabbagetown submarket benchmark. Over 90 days, the building logged one closing at the same 11-day DOM, and lifetime volume stands at two leases with a 23-day average DOM. Leasing cadence accelerated sharply in the most recent month, cutting marketing time nearly in half compared to the prior April closing, though the absolute volume remains thin.

What is the negotiation spread between asking rents and closed lease prices at 55 Isabella?

55 Isabella leases settled on average at exactly 100% of asking price, with zero dollar variance and no annualized tenant savings or landlord revenue gain. Both tracked transactions closed at the listed rate, indicating balanced pricing leverage between landlord and tenant across this small sample.

What are typical executed lease prices across different layouts at 55 Isabella?

The 2-Bedroom layout is the sole leased tier at 55 Isabella, averaging $2,995 per month across two closed leases with a 23-day average DOM. This represents a limited sample size and serves as a directional indicator only. The median rent sits at $2,995, the P25-P75 range is flat at $2,995, average suite size is 850 square feet, and the realized rate is $3.52 per square foot.

What measurable rent premium did suites with parking achieve in closed leases at 55 Isabella?

55 Isabella does not have a reliably isolable leased parking premium, as paired data between suite rents and parking charges is insufficient to calculate a verified figure. Active listings also show unreliable or outlier parking pricing that cannot be quoted with confidence. Tenants should confirm whether parking is bundled into the suite rate or billed separately before signing.

How does the lease-to-listing ratio at 55 Isabella reflect current tenant demand?

55 Isabella held a flat $2,995 average rent across its two tracked monthly closings from spring through late summer 2026. In April, one lease closed at $2,995 per month, $3.52 per square foot, after 34 days on market. By August, the second lease also closed at $2,995 per month and $3.52 per square foot, but DOM compressed to 11 days. The identical nominal rent and rate per square foot confirm no devaluation; the 23-day DOM improvement reflects faster tenant decision-making rather than a pricing concession.

De-Listed Market Analysis & Questions

How many listings de-listed at 55 Isabella, and what was their re-listing price compared to previous asking?

55 Isabella recorded six delisted units, representing a 600% ratio against its single trailing-30-day lease and a 300% ratio against lifetime volume. All six were terminated listings; none expired or were suspended. This delisted-to-leased ratio signals meaningful listing churn relative to the building's thin closing cadence.

How do asking prices on de-listed suites compare to executed leases and active listings at 55 Isabella?

55 Isabella unrented units asked an average of $2,312 per month, which is $683 per month below the realized lease benchmark of $2,995 per month. The nominal gap reflects compact suite footprints in the delisted stock, as those units carried a higher rate of $4.72 per square foot versus the $3.52 per square foot realized on leased 2-Bedroom suites. Tenants demonstrated resistance to the elevated per-square-foot pricing on smaller layouts.

What market friction causes rental listings to stall or de-list at 55 Isabella?

55 Isabella delisted units sat on market for an average of 47 days, compared to 11 days for the most recent realized lease and 23 days lifetime. That 36-day excess over the 30-day benchmark translates to roughly 1.2 months of lost rent at the $2,312 asking rate—approximately $2,774 in carrying cost—plus ongoing condo maintenance fees during the unrented period.

12-Month Market Dynamics & Trend Trajectory

55 Isabella realized an average lease of $2,995 per month, a $359 premium over the Cabbagetown submarket average of $2,636 per month. On a rate-per-square-foot basis, however, the building's $3.52 per square foot trails the submarket's $4.23 per square foot by 16.8%, reflecting the larger 850-square-foot suite footprint that dilutes the per-unit pricing metric relative to smaller submarket inventory. Pricing discipline at 55 Isabella is tight: both tracked leases closed at exactly asking with zero dollar concession and a 0% variance. No tenant secured a discount, and no landlord captured a premium above list. The balanced negotiation outcome across this small sample suggests landlords are pricing at or near market-clearing levels without requiring post-listing adjustments.

Nearby Building Rental Comparables & Price Spreads

Direct rental rate comparisons against residential properties in the immediate vicinity.

55 Isabella at 55 Isabella Street sits in a tightly clustered Cabbagetown pocket where four nearby buildings anchor the competitive set, all recording closed lease transactions over the trailing 180 days. Isabella Court at 33 Isabella Street (0.05 km, built in 1974) logged 8 closed leases, while Gloucester Gate at 30 Gloucester Street (0.08 km, built in 1970) recorded 2 and Churchill Apartments at 608 Church Street (0.09 km, built in 1925) closed 1 lease in the same window. The most active peer by volume is 55C at 55 Charles Street East (0.12 km, completed in 2024), which transacted 78 closed leases over the past six months. The structural generations span nearly a century, from Churchill's 1925 construction to 55C's 2024 delivery, placing 55 Isabella's 1966 build in the middle of the vintage range alongside its two immediate neighbours on Isabella and Gloucester Streets. The four-comparable benchmark averages $2,122 in realized monthly rent at $4.67 per square foot across an average suite of 474 square feet. 55 Isabella's realized lease data shows an average rent of $2,995 at $3.52 per square foot over 850 square feet, meaning the building delivers roughly 80 percent more interior space than the comp average while pricing each square foot at a meaningful discount. The submarket-wide Cabbagetown benchmark sits at $2,636 average lease rent and $4.23 per square foot, confirming that 55 Isabella's value proposition is anchored in footprint scale rather than rate premium. With only 84 suites and a 1966 construction date, the building competes on generous interior dimensions and a low-maintenance operating model rather than on amenity density or modern finishes.

Comparable Analysis & Questions

How do rental rates at 55 Isabella compare to neighbouring buildings within Cabbagetown?

55 Isabella's average realized lease rent of $2,995 per month exceeds the four-comparable benchmark of $2,122 by $873, driven primarily by the building's substantially larger suite footprints rather than a per-square-foot rate premium. Isabella Court at 33 Isabella Street (0.05 km) closed 8 leases averaging $1,983 per month at $4.40 per square foot over 456 square feet, meaning the subject commands $1,012 more in nominal rent. Gloucester Gate at 30 Gloucester Street (0.08 km) recorded 2 closed leases at $1,950 per month, $4.29 per square foot, and 468 square feet, a $1,045 spread in the subject's favour. Churchill Apartments at 608 Church Street (0.09 km) closed 1 lease at $1,725 per month, $5.64 per square foot, and 306 square feet, producing the widest nominal gap of $1,270. 55C at 55 Charles Street East (0.12 km) transacted 78 closed leases averaging $2,831 per month at $4.33 per square foot over 664 square feet, the closest rent comparison at just $164 below the subject's realized figure.

Does 55 Isabella offer a competitive price-per-square-foot ($/SF) against local comparables?

55 Isabella trades at a discount of $0.88 to $2.12 per square foot below every active nearby competitor while providing 186 to 544 more interior square feet, making the higher nominal rent a function of footprint scale rather than asset valuation. Against Isabella Court, the subject offers 394 additional square feet at a $0.88 per square foot discount (20 percent below the comp's $4.40 rate), so a renter pays more in total but less for each unit of space. Gloucester Gate presents a similar trade-off: 382 more square feet at a $0.77 per square foot discount (17.9 percent below $4.29). Churchill Apartments, the smallest comp at 306 square feet, carries the steepest per-square-foot rate at $5.64, and the subject undercuts that by $2.12 per square foot (37.6 percent) while delivering 544 extra square feet. 55C, the highest-volume peer, sets the tightest spread: the subject provides 186 more square feet at a $0.81 per square foot discount (18.7 percent below $4.33), keeping the total monthly rent only $164 above the comp's realized average. In every pairing, the renter who prioritizes interior space over a lower sticker price finds 55 Isabella's larger suites at a lower rate per square foot the more cost-efficient choice.

How do building age, amenities, and developer reputation impact rent spreads?

55 Isabella provides only Concierge & Security and a Shared Laundry Room, a deliberately lean amenity profile that contrasts sharply with the lifestyle-heavy packages at its three closest peers. Isabella Court layers on a gym, sauna and steam room, tennis and pickleball court, party and lounge room, dining kitchen, meeting room, media theatre, and games room; Gloucester Gate adds a gym, car wash bay, party lounge, library, BBQ area, and dog run; and 55C delivers a 15-amenity suite including a spin studio, yoga studio, rooftop terrace, business centre, pet wash station, and outdoor firepits. Churchill Apartments at 608 Church Street is the sole comp matching 55 Isabella's two-amenity baseline of concierge security and shared laundry. The building therefore operates as a no-frills, low-maintenance residential option that appeals to cost-conscious renters—families, long-term professionals, or budget-sensitive households—who prioritize generous interior square footage and predictable operating costs over gym memberships, rooftop social spaces, or pet-washing facilities.

Snapshot Dates & Benchmark Cadence

  • Standardized Snapshot: Market metrics reflect a standardized monthly snapshot locked as of August 31, 2026.
  • Benchmark Comparison Cadence: Month-over-month comparisons evaluate changes across standardized month-end reporting windows (August 2026 vs July 2026), ensuring consistent baseline periods and eliminating intra-month reporting volatility.
  • Point-in-Time Daily History: Daily charts capture point-in-time active listings available on any given calendar day.

Public Data Aggregation & Thresholds

  • Public Data Aggregation: FastScreen aggregates residential rental listing and completed lease transaction records from publicly available sources.
  • Threshold Filtering: All listings are subject to a minimum monthly rental threshold of $1,000 to filter out standalone storage lockers, private parking spaces, and misclassified commercial entries from condominium statistics.

Calculation Formulations

  • Average Asking Rent: Weighted average of active asking prices across available suites in the reporting period.
  • Price Per Square Foot ($/SF): Calculated by dividing rent by square footage only for listings that provide unit dimensions (suites without stated square footage are excluded from $/SF calculations).
  • Days on Market (DOM): Measures elapsed calendar days between the date a suite is first listed and either the benchmark snapshot date (for active listings) or the finalized date leased.
  • Parking & Den Differentials: Average asking rent differences between suites with vs. without parking, and suites with vs. without a den.

Data Limitations & Scope

  • Exclusively Public Records: Statistics are derived exclusively from publicly available rental listings and completed lease records. Private direct-to-landlord arrangements, unadvertised tenant renewals, and off-market rental agreements are not captured.
  • Agreed Contract Amounts: Reported lease amounts reflect agreed contract rents and do not account for private move-in allowances or individual unit renovations that may influence pricing spreads.
