About This Home

As of November 2021

I call this delightful cottage a 'Diamond in the Fluff' it has been updated but still needs some improvements. Otherwise you will find a dreamy, romantic cottage with bay views, separate studio workspace w/a full bath. Plus a potentially lovely garden. The long time artist owner painted the floors - we loved the look and kept it (they are oak). Good news- the kitchen and bath have been updated. The seller did lots of earthquake retrofitting, cared for the main roof, replaced the garage roof, new water heater and sewer lateral is compliant. You can't beat the location, surrounded by an enclave of darling cottages and charming homes Avon is a quiet little street, Centrally located in Kensington it is halfway between The Village shops and Colusa Circle (Sunday Farmers Market). Kensington neighbors Berkeley & is a 30 Min. drive to S.F
