Experience refined, single-level living in the highly coveted Lansdowne neighborhood, where thoughtful updates and timeless charm come together seamlessly. A brand-new roof installed in April 2026 adds peace of mind, while elegant French doors create a warm and inviting first impression. This home offers three bedrooms and two fully updated bathrooms, with a flexible layout that was originally four bedrooms. One has been transformed into an oversized walk-in closet, adding both luxury and functionality. The renovated kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring marble countertops, Café appliances, and a design that blends style with everyday usability. A gas log fireplace enhances the main living space, while the sunroom provides a bright and comfortable setting to relax year-round. Step outside to a true backyard retreat. The side porch offers the perfect setting for quiet mornings or evening gatherings, surrounded by mature trees, extensive landscaping, and vibrant plantings that create both privacy and visual appeal. The fully fenced yard adds an additional layer of comfort and usability. A pull-through driveway, two-car attached garage, and tankless gas water heater add convenience and efficiency to daily living. Located with close proximity to shopping, dining, and the Signature Club, this property offers a well-rounded lifestyle in one of Lexington's most desirable neighborhoods. Inspections are welcome. Property is being sold as-is.
