This town's historic legacy centers on the opening battle of the American Revolution. Recognized as the birthplace of American liberty, few towns typify the New England spirit as strongly as Lexington. Just 12 miles northwest of Boston and 5 minutes from Route 128, Lexington affords an easy commute to major colleges, hospitals, and employment centers.
Lexington's desirable residential suburb has preserved thousands of acres of land for woodlands or agricultural use. World-class ice-skating facilities, tennis courts, indoor/outdoor swimming pools and tracks, ballfields, golf courses, multi-purpose trails are all available within a short drive or walk from your home. The very popular Minuteman Bike Path continues on into Bedford, Arlington, and Cambridge. This beautiful and peaceful Lexington, MA suburb offers primarily larger, older homes that reflect the colonial period and maintain the feel of the traditional New England community while also containing the upgrades and amenities of modern life.
