About This Home
As of November 2025Next to a golf course community, steps from the pool, playground, pickleball and tennis courts, this no-CDD, highly sought-after Kensington community wants you! An immaculate Kensington home features 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, walking distance to top-rated St. Johns County Schools. You'll find 10-foot ceilings throughout, and a dramatic cathedral ceiling in the living room, offering wood-look tile and beautiful architectural details. Every bedroom includes a custom California closet. The kitchen features granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and a massive walk-in pantry. There's a formal dining room with wainscoting that adds charm and character, a built-in office nook, and a spacious upstairs bonus room with a half bath, easily serving as an office. The roof was replaced in 2021. The HVAC and water heater were new in 2024. No CDD fees; you're in a neighborhood with top-rated St. Johns County schools - this one checks all the boxes. Do you want to enroll your kids in top-rated schools? Do you want to play pickleball, golf, or tennis? This is the community for you. An oversized 3-car garage, a six-zone irrigation system on a deep well, and recent upgrades like a new roof (2021) and brand-new HVAC and water heater (2024) make this home as functional as it is beautiful. Inside, you'll find wood-look tile, custom California Closets in every bedroom, and thoughtful touches throughout - from the spacious upstairs bonus room to the built-in office nook and massive walk-in pantry. Located in the highly sought-after, no-CDD community of Kensington, you're just steps from the neighborhood pool, playground, tennis courts, pickleball, basketball court, and clubhouse. Zoned for A-rated Palencia Elementary, Pacetti Bay Middle, and Nease High School, and just minutes from Publix, boutiques, restaurants, and coffee shops - plus a quick drive to downtown St. Augustine and Vilano Beach. Top-rated schools, a laid-back community, and convenience at every turn - this location delivers.
