Built in 1924

A beautifully unique and inspiring retreat built in 1924 and modernized in 2019. Nestled on over a quarter-acre, private hillside in central Kensington, this 3-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom single-family residence offers 1,875 square feet of bright and airy living space, set on an expansive 11,410 square foot lot. The property boasts a fruitful orchard with persimmons, lemons, and apple trees, a serene oak forest, a tranquil bamboo grove, and ample sunlight and space for flourishing vegetable gardens. This home, perfect for those seeking tranquility, combines eclectic architecture and farmhouse styles with modern updates. The exterior showcases board and batten-weathered redwood, while the interior exudes warmth with a white-weathered finish and stained glass accents. This two-story abode is a sanctuary of light, lush surroundings, and stunning cityscapes. Every detail has been thoughtfully enhanced since 2019, with over $400,000 in updates including Nest smart control, a central alarm system, new exterior walls and insulation, ACME solar-powered retractable awnings, along with mini-split heat and AC units. Additional updates include newly replaced foundations, seismic retrofitting, new skylights, upgraded electrical and plumbing systems, as well as Marvin Signature windows.
