Property Description

Welcome to 225 Arlington Avenue, located in the heart of beautiful Kensington. Offered for the first time since the 1950s, this cherished residence is filled with natural sunlight and captures inspiring views of the San Francisco Bay. Sun-filled rooms highlight original character and generous living spaces. Beautiful period details include hardwood floors, extensive built-ins, and a handsome fireplace. The spacious eat-in kitchen features a charming breakfast nook and a large walk-in pantry, while the formal dining room opens to a balcony with beautiful Bay views. The home was thoughtfully remodeled, updated, and expanded in 1982 by noted architect Bennett Christopherson, with a seismic retrofit completed by Monte Stott in 2008. A spacious garage provides interior access to a large basement, along with ample additional storage & space for future projects . Outdoors, a pretty rear garden-always with something in bloom-offers a peaceful natural setting, perfect for family gatherings, relaxing summer days, and outdoor enjoyment. ?Ideally located just blocks from Village shops, Kensington Hilltop Sch, and neighbors Berkeley.
