About this home
Located on the desirable north side of Kensington and just a short stroll to the restaurants, cafés, and shops along Adams Avenue, this beautifully remodeled Craftsman blends timeless character with thoughtful modern upgrades and a detached income-producing ADU. The main home showcases classic architectural charm paired with an inviting layout designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The spacious kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, a large butcher block island, farm sink, and built out pantry. French doors throughout the home invite natural light and create a seamless connection to the outdoor living areas. The primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with a generous walk-in closet and a beautifully designed ensuite bathroom featuring elegant marble finishes, a custom vanity, and a spa-inspired walk-in shower. Set on a generous 7,168 sq ft lot, the backyard has been thoughtfully designed with turf and concrete to create clean, low-maintenance entertaining areas. A brand new jacuzzi and outdoor shower enhance the private, resort-style feel of the space. The detached ADU offers exceptional flexibility and is currently generating $2,650 per month in rental income, providing a valuable opportunity to offset the mortgage, host extended family, or create a private guest retreat. Major upgrades include a brand new roof and fully paid solar, new plumbing, new electrical, adding long-term efficiency and peace of mind while enhancing the home’s overall value and sustainability.
