This beautiful seven year-old Lexington colonial was designed perfectly to blend and reflect the town's rich residential roots with today's elegant decor. Within its spacious 16 rooms and 6,300 square feet of living space, visitors will find an eclectic combination of classic and contemporary architectural enhancements and features that result in a home that will appeal to a wide range of prospective homebuyers.
