4 BENNINGTON ROAD, built in 1902, is one of Munroe Hill’s most stately homes, and is set atop a knoll on approximately an acre of land. The 6,500 square feet of restored living space includes a first floor which flows through a grand foyer to a formal living room, library, dining room, sunroom, media room, large eat-in kitchen and mudroom. There are eight fireplaces, seven bedrooms, and two home offices. The preservation of architectural integrity is the finest example of understated elegance in Lexington. The surrounding landscape is accentuated by seasonal gardens, stone walls, and a birch tree grove. A three car garage with a potential accessory apartment and a driveway with two access points add daily conveniences. Munroe Hill, with it's own private tennis courts is next to the town center, and has direct access to Route 2 and conservation trails.
