Property Description
Just steps from the charming cafés, boutiques, and restaurants of Kensington Village, this beautifully restored 1925 Spanish Revival blends timeless architectural character with exceptional modern craftsmanship. Rich in original charm yet thoughtfully reimagined inside and out, the home showcases restored hardwood floors, designer lighting, handcrafted details, and abundant natural light throughout. The elegant formal living room is centered around a beautiful electric fireplace, while the spacious family room opens through French doors to a private patio, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. The custom kitchen features bespoke cabinetry, striking Nouvel Lustral Crystal Bookmatch Quartzite countertops, Durango Travertine and Statuario Marble flooring, and a professional-grade KitchenAid appliance suite. The spa-inspired primary suite offers a luxurious retreat with a soaking tub, oversized walk-in shower, dual vanity, designer finishes, and a skylight that fills the space with natural light. Beyond its stunning finishes, the home has been extensively upgraded with a fully engineered foundation retrofit, new electrical and plumbing systems, dual-zone high-efficiency HVAC, tankless water heater, comprehensive roofing improvements, restored and new windows, a new garage door, and fully permitted structural improvements with final City approval. Combining historic character, modern performance, and an unbeatable location just moments from Kensington Village, this is a rare opportunity to own one of the neighborhood's finest Spanish homes.
