Located along the quiet, tree-lined frontage road of Kensington Parkway, this charming Cape Cod home enjoys serene views of mature trees from the front while remaining just a short stroll from all that Kensington has to offer.

Featuring four bedrooms and three bathrooms, the home offers the flexibility of one-level living with a main-floor bedroom and a beautifully renovated full bath with a glass-enclosed shower and stylish vanity. Upstairs, you'll find three additional bedrooms and another updated full bath.

The kitchen, complete with brand-new appliances, opens to a cozy family room with backyard access--perfect for both daily living and entertaining. The inviting living room showcases a gas fireplace with built-in shelving, while the separate dining room provides space for gatherings. A versatile main-level bedroom doubles as a den and connects to a bright office or playroom.

The finished lower level with luxury vinyl plank flooring expands the living space, offering a recreation room with a wood-burning fireplace and built-ins, a half bath, an exercise room or office, laundry, ample storage (with shelving that conveys), and convenient walk-out access. The fenced backyard is a true highlight--featuring a lovely patio and a storage shed. Refinished hardwood floors flow across the main and upper levels, complemented by a freshly repainted interior for a crisp, updated feel.

Important updates include: HVAC, hot water heater, and roof (2015-2016), all new exterior doors and windows (2013), new sump pump (2023), and replacement of the laundry room pipe to the street (2022). A newer washer and dryer convey, and the driveway with EV charger provides convenient off-street parking.

The historic district offers Victorian-era architecture, unique shops, and a popular weekly farmers market. Annual events such as the Day of the Book Festival, summer concerts, and a Fourth of July bike parade create a lively and welcoming atmosphere.
