If you've been waiting for a home in Lexington where you can walk in, live comfortably, and slowly make it your own while building instant equity, this may be exactly what you've been searching for. Located in the established Picadome area of Lexington. Built in 1950, it carries the character and solid bones of a home from an era when houses were built to last. The interior welcomes you with natural light, comfortable living spaces, and a flow that connects the living room, dining area, and kitchen in a way that makes gathering with friends and family feel effortless. The backyard provides space to relax, garden, or enjoy quiet evenings outside. Now for the honest part that makes this home such an opportunity. The sellers recently completed an inspection and are fully aware that some repairs and improvements are needed. Instead of hiding that reality, they have chosen to price the home with those repairs in mind, based on contractor estimates. The home is still livable today, but it is ready for the next owner to step in and bring new life to it. If you are someone who enjoys projects, wants to customize a home instead of paying for someone else's updates, or simply wants a smart purchase with room to grow in value, this is exactly what we've been looking for.
