Introducing this lovely 1957 Arts and Crafts cottage with a detached garage in a prime Lexington location. Westside Court is a tucked-away ''secret'' few square blocks just off the main streets, giving this micro-neighborhood a quiet and secluded feel with lots of character. This adorable 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home has beautiful wood floors, a spacious kitchen, a formal dining room with glass French doors, floor-to-ceiling built-in bookcases in the living room, and a sunny office that leads outside to the patio. There are several finished flex spaces throughout the home--a basement bonus room, a 275 square feet converted attic, and an open finished room above the garage--all of which could make great creative studios, playrooms, additional offices, or simply use for extra storage. Outside, you'll find a little bit of everything, including a large patio shaded by mature trees, a low-maintenance grassy area for play, and lovely landscaping with several raised beds. The fully fenced yard is ready for your pets! And the location is divine--just a couple of blocks to Waddell Elementary School and Woods Creek Trail, with downtown Lexington also within easy walking distance, home to Washington and Lee University and Virginia Military Institute.
