Description
The breathtaking, head-on Golden Gate Bridge views will sweep you off your feet as you enter this meticulously updated Kensington home. Truly move-in ready, there isn’t a detail left untouched. Enter the gated courtyard under the whimsical canopy of the Magnolia tree, where fresh landscaping and tile pavers set the stage for alfresco dining and relaxing in the peaceful aesthetic. Warm hardwood floors and recessed lighting greet you as you hang your coat in the entryway closet. The kitchen was remodeled to the studs in 2026, and the result is elegant and sleek, with honed quartz countertops and all new electric appliances beckoning the home chef to create. The open floor plan allows for the view to be enjoyed from everywhere, and there is plenty of space for gathering loved ones to enjoy a meal at the holidays. Fresh oak flooring guides the eye from the kitchen through to the dining room, effortlessly connecting into the living space. Here, a timeless sandstone-faced fireplace anchors the room, framed by an expanse of windows designed to make the most of the spectacular view. The deck off the primary suite can also be accessed from the living room, and is the perfect spot for a peaceful morning coffee, or to take in the sunset at the end of the day. The two bedrooms on this level enjoy an element of separation from the common spaces, and a remodeled bathroom inspired by Danish design rounds out the upstairs. The stunning views continue downstairs in the spacious family room, where hardwood floors and a stately fireplace create a warm gathering space. There are 2 additional bedrooms and a remodeled bathroom with a glass-enclosed rain shower on this level, as well as a laundry room, storage, and access to the backyard. Behind the scenes, this home has been updated for peace of mind with a newer roof, new furnace for the upper level, a new sub-panel, and numerous electrical updates. Upper Kensington shops are just a half mile from the front door, as is Ye Olde School Trail trailhead. Minutes to Tilden Park for outdoor recreation, Kensington Hilltop Elementary School, and AC Transit bus line to San Francisco and Berkeley for an easy commute to UC Berkeley and surroundings.
