About This Home

As of October 2020

Charming Kensington getaway! Catch glimpses of the bay from atop this private drive shared with only 3 other houses. Near Colusa Circle, the shops on Arlington, Solano Ave and highly rated Hilltop Elementary school. Wonderfully updated while retaining the charm of a 1949 home. Important improvements include 2-yr old roof and skylights, attic insulation, Level 2 car charger, copper plumbing, sewer lateral compliance, interior and exterior paint, updated kitchen, refinished wood floors. The main bedroom has its own ensuite bath and there is a separate semi-finished bonus room off the garage perfect for home office or zoom room. Unfortunately, Google Maps shows a photo of the wrong house.
