Timeless beauty and historic charm in a magical setting. Dating to 1794, this exquisite Lexington home offers a rare balance of historic character and contemporary improvements. In 1941 the house was moved from its original site in Lexington Center to its current location less than a half-mile away, becoming a mainstay of a close-knit New England neighborhood. It sits proudly on a double lot with an exceptionally big back yard & nearly 4,500sf of living space, including 5 bedrooms, 3F & 2H bathrooms, a wonderful master suite, a sun-filled kitchen & breakfast room, a lower level family room & a 2 car garage. The jewel in the crown is a heavenly screened porch overlooking the grounds, which over the years has hosted countless evening meals, neighborhood gatherings, book club meetings, and family birthdays. Now 32 Vine Brook Rd awaits a new chapter in its storied history. The current owner is downsizing, creating an opportunity for you to make the house and its rich heritage all your own.
