For sale: Semi-Detached/Link

Stop scrolling and get in the car. This is the one you have been waiting for. 26 Daybreak Drive is a 3 bed, 2.5 bath semi on a quiet east-end street, with over 1,100 square feet of above-grade living space on top of a finished basement, and the two things that set it apart are the renovated kitchen and one of the deeper rear yards you will find on a semi in the area. The main floor is a true open concept, where most semis still carry a wall between the kitchen and the living room. White shaker cabinets, black hardware, stainless appliances, a breakfast bar with room to sit four, and a rear screen door that opens onto the deck. The living room runs off it in one stretch of floor, blue accent wall at the far end, bay window toward the street, with a two-piece off the hall and an oak stair with turned spindles leading up. The primary has its own bay and, behind the mirrored doors, a walk-in closet, with two more bedrooms and a four-piece bath on the same floor, the bath finished in a yellow accent wall, black fixtures, and a tiled shower. The basement rec room is finished with a gas fireplace and its own 4-piece bath, tub and shower, and is currently set up as an office and yoga room, with laundry and mechanicals kept to the utility side. The driveway offers plenty of parking, room for two or three cars, which is hard to come by on a semi. Out back, fenced and treed, a deck under a mature maple that is perfect for summer barbecues, and a lawn that runs well past the house, enough room for a garden, a hockey rink, or whatever the next owner wants to build into it. Argyle Mall and Highway 401 access are close. East London, and a yard most semis on the block cannot match.
