Beyond the Listing: 2417 Lockwood Dr, Rapid City, SD

There’s something special about homes with history. The kind that’s been filled with laughter, recipes, and memories that never seem to fade. 2417 Lockwood Drive is one of those homes. Lovingly owned since 1976, this west-side charmer has been cared for like family, because it was.

A Home That Feels Like Home

Step inside and you’ll feel it immediately: sunlight pouring through Pella windows, a cheerful kitchen designed for both cooking and conversation, and a dining area that opens seamlessly to your backyard deck. The kitchen has all the right updates, from pull-out drawers to ceiling-height cabinets and a gas stove that makes every meal feel like a comfort classic.

The main level offers all three bedrooms and a refreshed full bath that’s pure indulgence. A jetted whirlpool tub with a built-in TV (yes, it stays!). It’s the kind of space made for bubble baths and quiet evenings in.

Downstairs, the partially finished basement adds flexibility and room to grow. A completed second bathroom and wired family-room space mean you can easily create a cozy rec room, gym, or workshop, complete with built-in storage for hobbies and projects.

West-Side Living, Redefined

Location matters, and this one delivers. You’re just minutes from Meadowbrook Elementary, one of Rapid City’s most loved schools, and less than 10 minutes (about 3.5–4 miles) from Downtown Rapid City’s Main Street, where local shops, restaurants, and community events bring the city to life.

You’ll also love being near Meadowbrook Golf Course, Storybook Island, and Canyon Lake Park, all favorite west-side spots for walking, biking, and soaking in the Black Hills scenery. Need to run errands? Family Fare Supermarket is just 5 minutes away, and Monument Health Rapid City Hospital is a quick 12-minute drive.

The neighborhood itself is a quiet pocket of west Rapid, where neighbors still wave hello and mature trees give every street a timeless backdrop.

Outdoor Space That’s Made to Be Enjoyed

The backyard here is everything you’d want for weekend barbecues, gardening, or peaceful afternoons under the roll-out awning. Mature trees create a canopy of privacy, while the lawn shed keeps everything tidy. The Trex front porch with powder-coated railing offers a low-maintenance welcome home every single day.

And with a detached 2-car garage and wide concrete driveway, there’s space for all your toys, whether it’s bikes, kayaks, or that weekend project you’ve been meaning to start.
