One of the original bungalows on Kensington, this charming 1928 home has been beautifully renovated and has so much to offer. The full country porch runs the width of the house and features an inviting swing. Inside you'll find gleaming wood floors, an open floor plan and abundant natural light. Living and gathering spaces flow into a gourmet kitchen with quartz counters, stainless appliances, a wine fridge and island. Craftsman moulding, tall ceilings, replacement windows, recessed lighting, updated plumbing and updated electrical give the home comfort and polish. Two roomy bedrooms and a bright full bath complete the first floor. Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom is full of light, has big closets and flexible spaces that would work as a home office, yoga space, studio or nursery. The light filled bathroom has a large tiled shower and double vanity. An unfinished basement offers tons of potential. The present owners renovated the backyard with grading, downspouts, new lawn, a new patio and privacy fence. Close to Bandy Field, restaurants, shops, the University of Richmond and more. A neighborhood gem!
