    What's special

    Unlock the potential of 1643 Oak View, a classic 1927 Mediterranean-style home located in the heart of Kensington. Streetside, you’ll be immediately greeted by a balcony that beckons one to pull up a chair and sip your morning coffee while listening to the neighborhood birdsong. Once inside this 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home, you’ll discover arches, built-in’s, an original fireplace and more- all the charm you’d expect. An added bonus is the long driveway leading to a garage, storage shed, and sunny backyard. Owned by the same family since 1944, this home is in need of significant TLC, is being sold AS-IS and will not qualify for a conventional home loan- the sale must be cash, making it perfect for contractors, investors or eager developers. Located on a quiet street in the most coveted part of Kensington, you’re mere steps away from the Kensington Farmer’s Market, local shops, parks, dining and more. Walk Score of 78! Brimming with possibilities, this home is perfectly poised for your personalized renovation. Bring your vision and breathe new life into this timeless beauty!
