About This Home
Tucked on a quiet street, 39 Norwood Avenue is a mid-century retreat that blends timeless design with everyday comfort. The spacious living room features a vaulted wood ceiling, clerestory windows, and a large fireplace for a warm, inviting feel. At the heart of the home is an airy, open-plan space connecting the family room, dining area, kitchen, and laundry. Oversized windows frame lush garden views, and a slate patio just outside invites effortless outdoor dining. The east wing includes a serene primary suite with an attached office or nursery, full bath, and linen storage. On the west side, two additional bedrooms and another full bath provide privacy for guests or family. Large awning windows bring in fresh air, while hardwood and tile floors add natural charm. A double carport offers easy, level-in access to both the front and back doors. The backyard is both lush and practical, with space for outdoor dining and lounging with a book. Located on one of Kensington’s most beloved streets, you can walk your dog, visit Blake Gardens, or stroll to the village. A nearby bus stop offers easy access to UC Berkeley, BART, or San Francisco.
