Handcrafted Colonial Revival in Lexington Manor
At the corner of Blake Road and the Boulder Road cul-de-sac, in the heart of Lexington Manor, you’ll find a home that does more than shelter, it speaks. Of pride, of heritage, of quiet craftsmanship made to be lived in.
65 Blake Road is a Colonial Revival with soul. Built in 1942 and lovingly expanded since, it blends traditional grace with thoughtful updates, the kind you feel more than see. A bluestone path curves gently through perennial beds, welcoming you home. And above the garage, hand-cut shingle art of Captain Parker, Lexington’s Revolutionary hero, nods to the town’s past. Nestled in the stair newel, a 1942 Liberty Half Dollar quietly marks the home’s origins, a silver emblem of resilience and renewal.
Inside, the story continues. Light spills across hardwood floors. The dining room’s original hutch glows softly. The living room opens wide and warm, with a wood-burning fireplace at its heart. There’s a sunroom for reading, a bright powder room for guests, and space throughout that feels both classic and comfortably lived in.
At the rear, a major addition created the kind of kitchen and family space today’s life needs — and deserves. Cherry built-ins, radiant floors, a Wolf 6-burner range with griddle, a wine cooler, and seating for many. A room made for gathering, talking, and best of all - lingering.
Beyond it, windows open to the backyard, where seasons shift and stories unfold. Upstairs, the vaulted primary suite offers calm and privacy, with two walk-in closets and a spa-like bath. Three additional bedrooms, each with their own character, share generous closet space, built-ins, and a full bath. Down below, the finished basement expands the possibilities: game room, movie nights, a second kitchenette, even private entry via spiral stair.
Out back, it’s all charm and utility: a fire pit for chilly evenings, a fenced yard for pets at play, a garden shed in the corner that’s both sweet and useful. Systems have been carefully maintained and updated, central AC, three heating zones, Ring cameras, wired safety systems - blending old-world charm with modern peace of mind.
At Blake Road, it’s not just the features. It’s the feeling. A sense of care, character, and continuity that’s rare to find and hard to leave. From Liberty coin to garden gate, this home is a living love letter to Lexington — and it’s ready for its next chapter.
