Property Description

Timeless 1925 Craftsman in the heart of historic Kenton neighborhood - where historic charm meets thoughtful modern upgrades. Lovingly maintained by only three owners, this home showcases original refinished hardwood floors, rich built-ins, and classic trim details, alongside stunning glass French doors and a one-of-a-kind repurposed fire door.Designed for both comfort and functionality, the home features zoned HVAC, instant hot water with recirculation, and a fully air-sealed, high-efficiency envelope with heat recovery ventilation. The gourmet kitchen is a true centerpiece with solid stone counters, butcher block workspace, commercial-grade 6-burner range, stainless farm sink, and custom cabinetry with built-in nook.The finished basement offers a cozy fireplace, full home theater with projector and sound system, plus a flexible in-law suite with kitchenette and second fridge.Situated on an oversized lot, the outdoor space is a gardener's dream: established landscaping, fruiting plants, and a fully equipped greenhouse with heat pump, irrigation, and automated ventilation. Energy-efficient living is complete with a 5.5kW solar system and earthquake retrofitting.Located on one of Kenton's most sought-after blocks, just moments from local favorites like Posies Bakery & Cafe, Mantel and countless other charming neighborhood shops, homes here rarely come available. Kenton, and this particular block of Terry Street, is known for its welcoming community and wonderful neighbors-making this a rare opportunity to own a truly special home.Seller prefers a rent-back through mid-July to align with summer transition timing but is open to flexibility for an earlier closing.
