This lower Kensington home emanates an understated elegance that brings you in and fills you with calm. It delights at every turn. Situated on a tranquil cul-de-sac and set back from the street, the living spaces and bedrooms have an added sense of privacy. Upon entering, a formal entryway and vintage door chime welcome and invite. To the right is the formal dining room with French doors that spill onto the backyard patio, and give you your first glimpse at the expansive garden that awaits. With a handsome fireplace and oversized windows, the gracious living room to the left of the entryway has ample space and is perfect for gatherings. In fact, each room seems to offer a little more space than you expect, and there is great separation between the community spaces and the bedrooms. The primary suite is generously proportioned and set apart from the rest of the home. French doors open onto a large deck that flows naturally into the garden. Beyond that, an oak grove leads down to the creek. On a third of an acre lot**, the back garden is a magical expanse with seemingly no end in sight. Take a seat under the trees or near the fountains and sit very still. In no time, the orchestra of birds will fill your ears and soul. This is nature at your doorstep. The perfect exhale after a long day in the city. Situated in lower Kensington, just 0.7 of a mile from Sunday Farmer’s Market in Colusa Circle, and just 4 blocks (0.5 mile) from Kensington village shops and restaurants. Zoned for top-rated Kensington Hilltop Elementary school.
