Your Gardenside DREAM home is here. This updated Cape Cod on a basement sits on a huge corner lot in a coveted Lexington neighborhood, complete with popular schools, Gardenside Park, Wolf Run Creek, shopping nearby, and a very active neighborhood association (voluntary, but you'll appreciate it---give it a quick search online). Even before going inside this home, you've already won. *** Inside you'll find everything you want. * NEW KITCHEN with stylish cabinets, LG smart appliances, and a thoughtful layout designed to maximize storage and countertop space (this quartzite is gorgeous!) * gas fireplace in the bonus area of the kitchen (would make a great conversation area or reading nook) * neutral paint colors * upgraded lighting * hardwood floors * large, window-lit living room * spacious dining room * basement with plenty of finished space for hanging out, as well as some unfinished space currently being used for a home gym *** Now for the icing on the cake. Head out the back door, and you'll fall in love: a covered patio space (with ceiling fans, string lights, and a bird nesting box—currently occupied) * fire pit * expansive flat yard * custom wood privacy fence * and MY FAVORITE feature—a gigantic detached garage built in 2019 (28 x 30 ft.!) *** Whether you're a homebody or an entertainer, this home's many zones and easy flow will make you glad to come home. Come see quickly. Properties like this one don't come around often!
