Home of the Week: 20 Wheeler Road

Residents, guests, extended family. It will be difficult for anyone to leave this striking five-year young Lexington colonial on Wheeler Road.

Virtually every facet was custom designed to offer a comfortable, lavish and entertaining lifestyle to all that walk through its magnificent doors. Throughout each of its 14 rooms, the attention to detail and use of upgraded materials was applied with impeccable taste while its 6,640 square foot interior dimensions encourages seamless traffic flow and a fluid floor plan that seamlessly unites each space for graceful entertaining and natural daily integration.

The dramatic two-story marble front foyer lit by a Schonbek chandelier provides a wonderful introduction into the first level and a primary conduit for three of the common rooms on this floor. The 19 x 16 square foot living room is entered to the right of the entry and the 18 x 16 square foot formal dining area to the left. Going forward, this large vestibule spills into the 20 x 16 square foot fireplaced family room which suitably neighbors the 24 x 16 square foot kitchen that is fully equipped with premier ingredients, including a butler's pantry. In addition, this level includes a 16 x 11 square foot in-law suite with a full bath, private sunroom and balcony.

The second floor hosts a beautiful 20 x 16 square foot master bedroom, three bedrooms measuring at 15 x 12 and two at 16 x 11 square feet, a 9 x 6 square foot laundry center and a great 24 x 16 square foot bonus room that would make a second private family room or an ideal playroom for younger children before going to bed. The finished basement accommodates a range of recreational interests, with a 43 x 20 square foot game room, a 15 x 13 square foot media room and a kitchen to conveniently store and prepare snacks and beverages.

For amenities, this property will not leave it residents wanting with laundry rooms on each floor, central vacuum, a gas-fired generator, intercom system and an oversized three-car attached garage, and behind the scenes it offers five-zone high-efficiency radiant heating system and 50-year Hardiplank siding.

As this introductory summary illustrates, this property can and will fulfill all the desires and requirements of its residents and even takes that residential wish list to another level. Located within historic Lexington, this purchase provides the best of suburban living and city living, all within a property completely dedicated to its residents' comfort and entertainment.
