About this home
*New 2-car garage presently being constructed.* With leafy park views & a generous 40502 lot, this fully-restored historic home dazzles inside and out. Directly across from Lexington's beloved Woodland Park, the c. 1916 residence welcomes visitors with its wide front porch. A sunny parlor opens to a drawing room, each with their own matching fireplaces, antique mantels, and beautifully-detailed screens. Complemented by modern premium finishes, the restoration by Crawford Builders skillfully marries old & new. Original wood floors & hardware have been preserved and restored wherever possible throughout the home. The oversized scale of the brick home ensures plenty of "elbow room" for all with its nearly 4,000 sq. feet, including 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. The sizable chef's kitchen includes fine custom cabinetry, Thermador appliances, and an ever-useful adjoining butler's pantry and mudroom. Upstairs, light-filled bedrooms each include appealing views. Spa-like bathrooms offer chic finishes and ample storage. An enclosed former sleeping porch (alongside the primary suite) would make a beautiful sunroom or study. Marvin windows, all new HVAC systems (2025), two tankless water heaters, and a B-Dry basement system ensure the home's continued preservation. New plumbing, electrical systems, radon system, roof, and insulation combine to add peace of mind for years to come. The neighborhood's historic overlay zone further ensures respectful maintenance of its architectural character. Enjoy one of Lexington's most convenient locations by walking to Cole's, Chevy Chase Inn, Kroger, and the Clay Avenue Shops. Note: some purchasers may qualify for state historic preservation tax credits of up to $120,000 if closing occurs prior to April 29, 2026. Information is on file for review by your qualified tax professional....
