Delightful 3BR, 1BA one-level home at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Kensington. Designed by architect Paul Hammarberg, former Kensington resident known for important projects throughout the East Bay, 15 Arlington Lane embodies vintage charm along with the addition of modern, eco-friendly updates. The sunny living room features original hardwood flooring and is adjacent to the dining area. The kitchen updates include Energy Star appliances, sustainably sourced countertops and a built-in compost and recycling center, all with a nod to the past by reusing the original cabinets and marmoleum flooring. Three private bedrooms are separate from the living areas, and share access to the bathroom with updated vanity, tile and low-flow fixtures. An attached, 2-car garage also has built-in cabinets and shelves, while an unfinished area below the house provides opportunities for additional storage. The secluded backyard, a certified butterfly habitat, provides plenty of room to roam, mature fruit trees such as fig and plum, and a treehouse with swing. The home is conveniently located near the Upper Kensington shops, while also easily accessible to Colusa Circle, Solano Avenue and AC Transit stop around the corner. The property is zoned for Kensington Hilltop Elementary, a California Distinguished School and Gold Ribbon Recipient.
