The expansive wraparound porch extends the home outdoors, creating a seamless setting for relaxed gatherings and spectacular sunset views. The heart of the home is a thoughtfully designed addition centered around a chef’s kitchen, complemented by a butler’s pantry, casual dining area, and dedicated office nook. Refined design and exceptional functionality come together in spaces equally suited to daily routines and sophisticated entertaining. The lower level extends the home’s versatility with a media room, game room, fitness center with direct backyard access, and an additional mudroom. An attached three-car garage and two mudrooms bring a level of practicality that complements the home’s elevated design. Set on coveted Meriam Hill, just moments from Lexington’s vibrant town center, the property offers exceptional access to acclaimed schools, local shops, restaurants, and community amenities. With its thoughtful renovation, sophisticated interiors, and rare combination of historic character and contemporary comfort, this is a distinctive opportunity to enjoy refined modern living in one of Lexington’s most desirable locations.
