Enchanting Kensington home with a private, enclosed courtyard, this special property is a true sanctuary. Offered for the first time in over four decades, it has been a cherished refuge for the same family and is now ready to welcome its next stewards. The spacious living room is designed for both entertaining and relaxing by the fireplace, framed by Heath ceramic tile. The dining room flows seamlessly to the outdoor patio, creating an inviting setting for al fresco dining and quiet moments outdoors. Thoughtful updates include energy-efficient windows, new light fixtures, electrical improvements, and an updated hallway bathroom. The main level features three bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with an en suite bathroom, offering comfortable single-level living. A versatile lower-level space with its own entrance, bathroom, and kitchenette provides additional flexibility for a variety of uses. Ideally situated near Tilden Regional Park, UC Blake Garden, and Hilltop Elementary, with convenient access to Solano Avenue, Berkeley, El Cerrito, and the greater East Bay. Don’t miss the opportunity to make this special Kensington home your own! *The main and lower-level living spaces together total 2,359 sq. ft., as measured by the photographer.
