Property Description
Spiritually known as an outpost for angels, discover this 1929 Spanish Colonial estate on nearly ¾ of an acre! Privately nestled behind walls in the most desirable cul-de-sac location in north Kensington. Feel the tranquility & warmth unfold upon entering this special home.

Step onto the main patio, an entertainer’s fantasy, complete with a warming outdoor fireplace, built-in seating and views of the first Franciscan California mission Basilica San Diego de Alcala’, founded in 1769.

The expansive master retreat is in a private wing of the home and enjoys gorgeous views, a fireplace, a walk-thru closet and a separate office/lounge area. The master bath features tile & marble as well as an oversized jetted tub. Wonderful exterior stairways are truly out of a European fantasy, one of which that leads directly from the master suite to the rear yard for that late-night swim. Unbelievably, there is...
