    What's special

    Versatile loft spaceDramatic fireplacePrivate backyardPeriod detailsStreaming natural lightExpansive primary suiteTree-top views
    Nestled in one of North Kensington’s most desirable pockets, this 1935 Spanish Revival home captures the essence of San Diego’s architectural heritage while offering a layout that’s as functional as it is elegant. From the moment you arrive, the home’s curb appeal sets the stage with its classic lines, period details, and an unmistakable presence that reflects nearly a century of history. The formal living room is a showpiece—soaring ceilings, streaming natural light from oversized windows, and a dramatic fireplace that serves as the centerpiece. Rich original hardwood floors flow seamlessly throughout, complemented by vintage interior doors and hardware that preserve the home’s authenticity. Every detail feels intentional, from the arched passageways to the subtle craftsmanship that defines the Spanish style. The kitchen and adjoining breakfast nook exude charm, perfect for morning coffee or casual meals that overlook the private backyard. On the main level, you’ll find two spacious bedrooms, each with character and natural light, offering flexibility for guests, an office, or family living. Upstairs, the home continues to impress with a versatile loft space that captures tree-top views and can easily serve as a reading room, playroom, or additional lounge area. Two more bedrooms complete the upper level, including the expansive primary suite—a true retreat that spans more than 400 square feet. With its massive walk-in closet, generous proportions, and serene feel, it is a rare find in a historic Kensington home. This home has paid off solar and an attached 2 car garage.
