About this home
New stainless steel kitchen, new systems, & more, just move right into this house that has been renovated & updated into an incredibly newer & healthy version of the house they bought 9 years ago. This 1,830 sf home appears much bigger on the inside than it presents from the street. Situated on a quiet side street, you will be pleasantly surprised upon entering the enclosed spacious front porch. Once you traversed from the enclosed porch into the house, you are greeted by a huge living room (that is 300 sf), that show off the wonderful hardwood floors that are all throughout the house. Another incredible detail of this level are the very high ceilings & oversized windows that let the natural light pour into this space. Connecting to the living room is a formal dining room that has French Doors that take you outside to the covered screen porch, as well as a substantial deck with stairs down to the large, level backyard. This room is connected to the recently renovated kitchen with all stainless steel appliances and quartz countertops. On the 2nd level of the home you will find 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The primary bedroom is ensuite with a walk-in-closet and California closets shelving, the 2 other bedrooms share a full bathroom, both have walk-in closets with shelves. Air quality & water are incredibly important to the current owner, so they made the following improvements during their ownership: 6 Mitsubishi mini-splits (2018) for both heating & cooling in every room, whole-house and drinking water filtration (2018), radon mitigation, Honeywell TrueFRESH ventilation (2018), fresh interior paint (2026), new windows (2017), & 200-amp electrical service (2016). They also had the interior of the house de-leaded (2017) and the paperwork is attached. The lower level has just under 300 sf of additional living space, perfect for a family room or an office. This level is also a walk-out with a slider that takes you to a very large backyard. In the mechanical room, you will find a washer & dryer. As a bonus, you will also find a 1/2 bathroom in this space (we don't count it in the living space). There is also a huge walk-in closet on this level and built-in book shelves. Being able to quickly get to the schools, Hayden Recreation Center & Lexington Center, make this homes location ideal.

Idylwide, located between Lexington Center and the Arlington line, is a residential and wooded Lexington neighborhood with curving lanes and mid-century ranches. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Massachusetts Avenue and Woburn Street junction, where commuter traffic, small storefronts, and sidewalk rhythms set the pace. Wilson Farm anchors local routines with its market barn, greenhouse rows, and seasonal stands. Nearby, the Lexington Community Center and Cary Memorial Library add a civic, cultural counterpoint to the quiet streets. Pocket conservation land and the Minuteman Bikeway shape daily routes on foot and bike. The landscape reads as low-slung homes, mature trees, and a calm, tucked-away feel close to town life.
