Lexington Home of the Week: 32 Hayes Ave.

Prospective homebuyers do not need to cross continents to experience the art of a romantic English lifestyle. This 93 year-old English colonial in Lexington's desirable Meriam Hill lives up to its title not only with its charming setting but is custom architecture and period enhancements. Those accents have also been perfectly blended with stylish and complementary decor and updated materials and appliances to offer an eclectic residence where warm and inviting are the first impressions the minute you walk through the door.

Soft lines, curves and details were applied in its original fabrication which immediately raises its unique status in the Lexington real estate market. The owners have embraced that romantic by harmonizing every scene with their decor and accessories, from the lush landscape to the lighting fixtures to the abundance of light neutral tones and glass doors. The first level consists of a lovely 25 x 14 square foot fireplaced family room with a music alcove, built-ins and French doors opening into a private patio, a 14 x 13 square foot formal dining area with custom cabinets and a 19 x 14 square foot gourmet kitchen with granite surfaces and a center island with seating.

The second level hosts a 17 x 13 square foot sky-lit master suite with a vaulted ceiling, walk-in closet and full bath, and three bedrooms at 14 x 14, 14 x 13 and 14 x 6 square feet. The finished basement supplies the ideal venue for relaxation and recreational activities with a 17 x 13 square foot playroom.

The purchase of this delightful home can fulfill visions of spending every evening within walls that envelop and cloak residents from the outside world. For prospective homebuyers who spend vacations in charming bed and breakfast inns, every day can now be a holiday. It may sound too good to be true, but this property is the one that can make that perfect residential fantasy a reality.
