North Hill Pricing Guide: Townhomes From the $700s, Detached From $999K

North Hill townhomes start from the $700s and detached homes from $999K, subject to change without notice. These are product-level entry prices, not typical prices: per-plan pricing, lot premiums, upgrade pricing, deposits and incentives have not been released. Build an all-in ceiling covering purchase price, premiums, upgrades, closing costs and a contingency, then qualify against the top of your range.

The two published starting ranges

North Hill townhomes start from the $700s, while detached homes start from $999K. The word "from" carries the weight:

Nothing else about price has been published: no per-plan prices, no premium schedule, no upgrade price list, no deposit structure, no incentives. Any specific number you see for a named North Hill plan today did not come from Solmar.

Build the number that actually matters: your all-in ceiling

A purchase price is not a budget. Your ceiling is:

Write one number at the bottom. That number, not the "from" price, is what you shop with.

Qualify against the top of your range

Pre-approval based on the published minimum is the most common budgeting error in pre-construction. Ask your lender to qualify you at your ceiling, and then stress it:

[] Test payments at 1–2 percentage points above today's rate

[] Ask how the lender treats a long closing date and whether the approval will need re-underwriting

[] Ask what documentation will be re-verified before funding

[] Confirm how lot premiums and upgrades are treated in the appraised value

[] Confirm the impact of any incentive on lender-recognised value

Federal mortgage qualification in Canada applies a stress test to uninsured and insured mortgages; your lender will confirm the current rule applied to your file.

Premiums: the part buyers under-budget

In freehold releases, premiums attach to things you cannot change later — and North Hill's marketing centres exactly on those things: extra-deep lots and select homes backing onto ponds, mature forests and natural green space. Expect the best lots to carry the largest premiums, and decide in advance what you would pay for:

  1. Protected natural backing
  2. Extra depth
  3. Wider frontage
  4. Corner or walkout position

Then hold that order when the price list appears. The detail on how to evaluate these lots is in deep lots and nature backings.

Upgrades: separate the permanent from the cosmetic

Sort every upgrade into one of two columns before you sit down with a décor consultant:

There is no North Hill upgrade price list yet, so treat this as a decision framework rather than a spend plan.

Deposits

No deposit structure has been published for North Hill. In Ontario, deposits on new freehold homes are protected under statutory limits administered by Tarion, and the protected amount depends on the purchase price band. Two questions for the sales office:

Do not commit to a schedule your cash flow cannot meet on the stated dates.

Comparing value without published plans

Until square footages exist, you cannot compute price per square foot. What you can compare at release:

A cheaper home with four excluded items is not cheaper.

Timing and price movement

Solmar states a Fall 2026 selling window. Prices may be revised before or during that window; that is normal and disclosed by the "subject to change" language. Do not build a plan that only works if today's published figure holds.

Bottom line

There are two product-level starting ranges for North Hill, and each is a floor. Build your ceiling, qualify at the top of it, decide which premiums you will pay for, and separate permanent upgrades from cosmetic ones. Do that and the price list becomes information rather than pressure.

Frequently asked questions

What is the starting price at North Hill?

North Hill townhomes start from the $700s and detached homes start from $999K, subject to change without notice. These are product-level entry prices rather than typical prices, and per-plan pricing has not been released.

Are lot premiums included in the starting prices?

No premium schedule has been published. In Ontario freehold releases, a starting price normally excludes lot, view, depth and walkout premiums, which are added on the price list.

What deposit will North Hill require?

The deposit structure has not been published. Ask for the exact schedule at release and confirm each instalment falls within Tarion's protected deposit limits for your price band.

Will prices change before the Fall 2026 release?

They can. Solmar's published pricing is explicitly subject to change, and builders commonly revise price lists between marketing launch and release.
