Lexington Home of the Week: 17 Justin St.

Almost 2,000 square feet of living space may sound like plenty of room when evaluating this wonderful Cape on Justin Street, but this purchase can ultimately deliver much more with expanded accommodations.

This property boasts more than half an acre of land, which provides ample background for growth and approvals are already in hand from the trustees of the bordering Justin/Bernard conservation land to add an additional 1,600 square feet. This already beautiful home now has the viable possibility of boasting almost 4,000 square feet of finished space.

This home currently offers versatile living space throughout three levels, including 527 square feet in the finished basement that is not included in the official listed dimensions. The first floor consists of a charming 17 x 12 square foot fireplaced living room, an intimate 10 x 10 square foot dining area, a 10 x 10 square foot kitchen with a center island, a delightful 12 x 10 square foot sunroom and a 14 x 11 square foot master bedroom and full bath. With many common and personal spaces on this floor, convenient single-level living is not only possible but practical and comfortable.

The second level hosts two incredibly spacious bedrooms at 20 x 13 and 20 x 12 square feet and another full bath. The finished basement provides an expansive and resourceful 31 x 17 square foot paneled family room that includes a recreation area, dining space and a handy laundry center. Speaking of recreation, this property also sponsors outdoor amusements and activities with its spacious lot, patio and in-ground diving pool.

This home is located in a highly desirable neighborhood with plenty of privacy next to the Justin/Bernard conversation land and nearby many amenities, such as shopping, parks and major routes. The possibilities are endless when it comes to the opportunities offered with this lovely Cape. It currently provides all the necessary ingredients for comfortable living but also supplies real alternatives to accommodate a growing family.
