ATTENTION INVESTORS & DIY VISIONARIES: This is the ultimate equity-builder in Kensington. While most "fixers" hide expensive structural secrets, the heavy lifting here is already done: this home features significant completed foundation work, new dual-pane windows, and a recently updated kitchen. What remains is a cosmetic blank slate ready for a high-end transformation. Boasting iconic San Francisco Bay and Golden Gate views, this 3BD/2BA ranch sits on a rare, expansive, and mostly level lot with massive ADU potential.
The interior is a "diamond in the rough" requiring an aesthetic overhaul. Bring your contractor and your vision for two full bathroom remodels, interior/exterior paint, and new flooring, doors, and trim throughout. This property is priced as one of the lowest price-per-square-foot opportunities in the neighborhood over the past year, specifically reflecting the deferred maintenance needed. Instead of paying for someone else's mid-range finishes, choose your own and capture the substantial upside this premier location commands. Sold strictly As-Is. If you aren't afraid of a project, this is the best value-add opportunity on the market. Assigned to top-rated schools, close to parks, and enjoying Kensingtons best amenities. Your sweat equity starts here.
