Property Description

A Magical Kensington Retreat Above Cerrito Creek Discover a truly special Kensington home, tucked into a lush natural setting above Cerrito Creek and directly across from the Village shops. This spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers a rare blend of privacy, nature, and everyday convenience. So much charm and character fill this home. Almost level in from the welcoming porch that opens to light-filled living spaces, including a vaulted-ceiling living room with a fireplace, an elegant formal dining room with an elevated peaked ceiling, breakfast area, and updated kitchen and baths. The flexible floor plan includes bedrooms on both levels, plus laundry, storage, and bonus space ideal for a home office, guests, or a casual retreat. Outside, 5 interconnected decks extend the living space into a gorgeous woodland-like garden. Mature greenery, peaceful outlooks, and the gentle presence of Cerrito Creek create a wonderfully private setting for dining, entertaining, or relaxing. A heated H2X Fitness swim spa (pool) offers year-round exercise and relaxation, while a charming treehouse adds a touch of whimsy. Enjoy the best of both worlds: a serene, nature-filled retreat with Village shops, cafés, and neighborhood conveniences just across the street. A rare Kensington offering where creekside tranquility meets the ease and charm of Village living.
