    What's special

    This tastefully refreshed mid-century home features soaring wood-beamed ceilings and magnificent details, complementing the home's open concept. Tall windows offer an abundance of natural light and lovely outlooks of woodsy and Golden Gate Bridge views. The custom kitchen features quartz counters, cherrywood floors, white Shaker-style cabinetry, glass backsplash, stainless steel appliances and deep farm-style sink.  The layout is ideal, with bedrooms separate from public rooms. 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms are on the main floor, and downstairs features a bonus room and full bath. There is an enormous 2+ car garage at the back of the house with interior access and tons of storage. The driveway, completely reconstructed using stylish pavers, was created with a turn-around space so that the owners never have to back their car out onto Arlington. The contemporary pavers can double as sunny patio outdoor space, and there's a deck off the living room to enjoy sunsets. Additionally, the private and spacious grassy front yard is ideal for garden or play, and gives the house a nice buffer from the street. Along with the newer paver driveway, improvements include dual-paned Andersen windows, newer furnace including duct work, air conditioner, water heater, electrical panel, roof, drainage improvements, sump pump and structural reinforcements. Location is key, with close proximity to Kensington Hilltop School and just down the hill to The Plaza for coffee, restaurants and farmer's market. Got a San Francisco commute? The Transbay Express bus stop is less than a half-block away, and the house is less than 2 miles from the Plaza BART station. With 2,095 square feet of living space to enjoy, on a 6,098 square foot lot (both approximate, per public records), this is a home to settle into for the long haul.
