Exterior




It is a brick home (not a facade), built in the early 1950s. It has a one car detached garage with lots of storage inside. We have put in a garden area, rain barrels, a small herb garden, and a compost bin. Even those not dedicated to sustainability like we are will benefit from these additions!

The backyard hosts fruit trees (apples, peaches), grape vines, blueberry bushes, blackberries, and raspberries. There is a stone-lined fire pit in the garden area and a great climbing tree in the rear corner.

The lot backs up to private land that cannot be developed due to the creek that runs nearby. When we were originally looking for property in Lexington, we wanted land with a creek. We found even better - the park nearby has a creek running through it!
