OPEN HOUSE CANCELED. This idyllic property is truly something special. Unassuming, elegant, and perfectly proportioned, 131 Lincoln Road is one of very few right-sized, moderately-priced single-family homes in the highly desirable Town of Lincoln. The property blends privacy, nature, and convenience, with almost three acres of mature trees and well-established perennial gardens abutting conservation land, directly adjacent to Lincoln's extensive network of walking trails. This home offers flexible living space with a pleasant interplay of open flow and quiet corners. The bright, sunny dining room leads to both the living room and the lovely updated kitchen, which features a fresh blue-and-white palette, stainless steel appliances, an induction cooktop, quartz countertops, marble backsplash, a breakfast bar, and direct access to a fenced yard. On the other side of the center stairwell, the family room has windows on three sides, a French door to the exterior, and a wood stove for crisp fall evenings. A well-situated half bath completes the first floor. Upstairs, four bedrooms (including a primary with en-suite bath) offer options for family, guests, or home office; there is also a second bathroom on this level. The semi-finished basement houses laundry and storage, with potential for future expansion. Thoughtfully maintained and improved by the current owners, the home features numerous recent updates: an all-electric setup with efficient mini-splits for heating and cooling, a new electric panel, solar and electric water heater, added insulation in the basement and attic, fresh exterior paint, a new wood stove, and upgraded kitchen and bathrooms, among other improvements. This charming home is located just .25 mile from the commuter rail, Donelan's Supermarket, eateries, and local conveniences; .5 mile from Codman Farm; and 1 mile from Lincoln's well-respected, superbly renovated K-8 public school and recreational campus. It is also within easy reach of Cambridge and Boston via Route 2 or I-95 to I-90.
