About This Property
Striking Modernist home on Merriam Hill designed by noted architect. The house was renovated over 2016-2018 with a comprehensive remodel, adding more living area to the first level, a renovation of the kitchen, bathrooms, the entry and more. Discerning aficionados of Modernism will find the open concept floor plan, walls of glass, and soaring voluminous ceilings they expect in the well-designed contemporary homes. While Lexington has a rich history of Modernism, it is rare to find such an exceptional property so close to the center of town and rarer still with a location in the prestigious Merriam Hill neighborhood. Add to that 260 ft of frontage and 1.23 park-like acres and it becomes clear that this is a unique gem of an offering. Imagine a lifestyle less dependent on a car, heading down the Minuteman Bikeway to dinner at one of the many restaurants in the center, followed by a show at Cary Hall, or grabbing a latte after the library. Available furnished for additional rent.
56 Meriam St is a house located in Middlesex County and the 02420 ZIP Code. This area is served by the Lexington School District attendance zone.

Standing on the very ground where the first shots of the American Revolution rang out in 1775, Lexington carries a kind of weight that no other Boston suburb can claim. Roughly 10 miles northwest of downtown, this town moves at a quieter pace, with tree-lined streets, dozens of public parks, and the Minuteman Bikeway threading through the landscape toward Cambridge and Bedford. The historic town center offers independent shops and local dining, and the green at Battle Green remains a genuine gathering point rather than just a photo stop.
Renters here tend to find well-maintained apartment communities, spacious townhomes, and converted residences that reflect the area's classic New England character. High-rises aren't the norm; instead, expect thoughtfully designed communities nestled among mature trees and residential streets.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
