The thoughtfully designed floor plan has inviting areas to gather for quality time and entertaining, as well as private retreats when peace and quiet are needed.

The tiled foyer offers a gradual entry into the sun-filled living room with hardwood floors and a white brick, wood burning fireplace which contributes to the cozy atmosphere, a wonderful place to entertain or simply spend time with family. Double French doors add even more charm to this inviting space, offering the first of several connections with the covered porch and expansive deck beyond for a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living.

The versatile sunroom extends the living room’s functionality, offering potential as an office or reading nook with built-in shelving and a wall of windows for endless natural light.

Everyone will love to gather in the stunning, open concept kitchen and dining room featuring granite counters, high-end Wolf and Bosch stainless-steel appliances, a large breakfast bar island, a tile backsplash, pendant lighting, recessed lighting, and a ceramic tile floor. A spacious box window overlooks the deck, welcomes the sunshine, and offers a charming window seat beneath. The dining room opens seamlessly, setting the stage for easy entertaining.

Step out from the French doors of the dining area to enjoy the covered porch or use the additional kitchen doors for a direct connection with the expansive deck and private backyard beyond. Unwind in the hot tub and enjoy the serene feel of the peaceful surroundings. The tree-lined backyard offers a secluded patio for further leisure and a storage shed to keep your garden tools organized.

Comfort and style await on the second level with two family bedrooms, one with an ensuite bathroom, the other with easy access to the full family bathroom just off the main hall. The cheerful family bedrooms are full of natural light with hardwood floors, ceiling fans, and ample closets.

Retreat to the third level to discover the ultra-private primary suite, full of character with exposed brick and a cathedral ceiling to enhance the bedroom’s spacious feel. A walk-in closet and additional closets provide plenty of storage and organization. The primary bathroom is fresh and inviting with a tiled shower. The third level landing offers a highly functional space with built-ins and closets which works well as an office or sitting area and another bonus room is perfect as a nursery, additional office, or a cozy den to read or watch TV before bedtime.

Just when you thought you had seen everything this wonderful home has to offer, prepare to be pleasantly surprised as the walkout lower level continues with an inviting entertainment haven featuring a custom-built bar with a beverage fridge. Reminiscent of an Irish pub, the lower-level family room is great for hanging out with family and friends while watching the game or cozying up for movie night. 

The lower level offers an easy connection with the backyard in addition to the mudroom, the oversized two-car garage, and brick driveways beyond, perfect for managing an active lifestyle. An additional driveway means extra parking for family and guests.

There is nothing to do but move right in and begin creating new memories in this meticulous home beaming with pride of ownership and offering excellent outdoor recreation options when you step outside. The recently upgraded Parker Meadow conservation area is close by, a true haven for nature lovers and perfect for peaceful strolls or picnics. In addition, the bike path is easily accessible, or take a longer stroll to the town center. Enjoy an outdoor lifestyle, be a part of the award-winning Lexington School System, and have a great commuter location with proximity near all major routes.
