Property is move-in ready.
Built in 1926, this property is in well-maintained, turn-key condition. The kitchen features a functional layout with updated cabinetry and countertops (likely 5-15 years old), and the home includes modern upgrades like owned solar. While the bathroom retains a dated vintage aesthetic, the overall structure, immaculate original hardwoods, and architectural details indicate a high level of maintenance consistent with a move-in ready home.
This 1926 home features meticulously preserved architectural details, including barreled ceilings, original hardwood floors, and built-ins, offering a rare turn-key blend of vintage charm and modern livability.
Situated just steps from Kensington Village and Adams Avenue, the property offers exceptional walkability to high-end dining, shopping, and community events in one of San Diego’s most prestigious neighborhoods.
The inclusion of an owned solar system provides significant long-term energy savings and environmental benefits, a high-value feature that distinguishes it from many other historic homes in the area.
With three bedrooms but only one bathroom, the layout may pose a functional challenge for families or those who frequently host guests, which is a notable drawback at this price point.
The 3,355-square-foot lot is relatively small, limiting private outdoor space and potentially restricting future expansion or the addition of a large accessory dwelling unit.
Perfectly positioned just steps from everything you love in Kensington Village, this single-level Spanish beauty w/ OWNED SOLAR blends classic character with effortless livability. From the moment you step inside, you’re welcomed by immaculate original hardwood floors, a stunning barreled ceiling, and a spacious living room anchored by a gas fireplace framed with rich wood built-ins. The layout flows seamlessly into a private dining room just off the kitchen — ideal for intimate dinners or hosting friends before strolling down to Adams Avenue. Natural light fills the home, highlighting its warmth and architectural details. The kitchen offers a warm and functional space designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. With generous counter space, abundant cabinetry, and a thoughtful layout, it flows naturally into the dining room while still maintaining its own distinct presence. The rear bedroom features charming doors that open directly to a serene, Zen-inspired backyard retreat. Thoughtfully designed with Spanish tile accents and a beautiful gazebo, the outdoor space feels like a private escape — ideal for morning coffee, al fresco dining, or quiet evenings under the stars. Mature landscaping enhances the sense of privacy while still allowing the space to feel open and inviting. A detached one-car garage provides convenience and flexibility — perfect for secure parking, additional storage, or even a creative studio space. Homes in Kensington at this price point — especially ones that are this turn-key and rich in original character — are exceptionally rare.
