    Welcome to 5 Arlington Ave., a beautifully refreshed Spanish-style home where charm meets modern living, all wrapped in sweeping San Francisco Bay views. Just moments from beloved Kensington Hilltop Elementary and the local village scene, this location puts you close to it all while feeling like your own hillside hideaway. Inside, bright, open living and dining spaces are framed by bay-facing windows and anchored by a sleek, modern fireplace. The updated kitchen is both functional and fun, with stylish countertops, a gas range, and plenty of room to cook, host, or both. Two sunny bedrooms and a designer-updated bath offer cozy, elevated comfort. Step outside to take in the layered outdoor spaces, from a BBQ-ready side deck to a terraced garden and view deck with front-row seats to the Bay. The newly hardscaped driveway, fresh paint inside and out, dual-pane windows, and updated lighting all add to the polish. With an attached garage (w/ level 2 EV Charger), extra parking, and rear access, plus easy proximity to parks, trails, and cafés—you really can have it all in Kensington.
