About Follen

Heights

Follen Heights, located between Massachusetts Avenue and the Minuteman Bikeway, is a residential and commuter-friendly Lexington neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and a leafy, low-rise feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Massachusetts Ave corridor near Waltham Street, where small storefronts, cafés, and everyday services set a steady, walk-and-stop rhythm. Nearby pillars include Cary Memorial Library, Lexington Venue, and the Lexington Farmers Market on the Town Green. Side streets read as tidy postwar blocks with occasional Colonials, while the bikeway adds a linear, car-free route for daily routines. Pocket parks and school grounds shape the open-space pattern, and the town center’s civic buildings give the area a polished New England backdrop.

Impeccably maintained by the owners who added value enhancing features over time including thoughtful, professional landscaping, this Follen Hill neighborhood mid-century ranch is a gem. The front-back living room, which features built-ins, a fireplace and magnificent wall-sized windows, adjoins the dining room off of which is an office with attached 1/2 bath. The eat-in-kitchen features a Subzero fridge, granite counters, Gaggeneau cooktop and Dacor, double wall ovens. On the other side of the home are the principal bedroom with an updated ensuite bathroom; two other bedrooms; and a common, updated full bathroom. A large finished room in the basement can serve as a perfect family or media room and has direct access to the brick patio and back yard. There remains much untapped potential in the unfinished portions of the basement. Direct interior access to the attached garage. Close to Lexington Center & commuting routes. A rare offering in today's market. (Most rooms virtually staged.)
