Fireworks and freedom is how most people like to celebrate America’s birthday! It’s a beloved holiday filled with parades, fireworks, cookouts and more. Lincoln, Massachusetts is an eventful town, especially on the 4th of July! 

38 Lincoln Road, a listing of ours, is located right in the heart of Lincoln Center. This classic 5 bedroom Farmhouse with some modern twists has so much to offer! It's easy walking distance to playgrounds, DeCordova Sculpture Park & Museum, the library, school, trails and more. It also provides a large, private backyard with equally large stone patio, and many features inside that you'll want to see for yourself. Be sure to grab a flyer on the open house sign as you pass by this weekend. Below is a schedule of all things to do next Thursday while in town.
