Kensington is a peaceful and charming town, nestled into the hillside north of Berkeley. It is a haven for those that want to be close to the action, but not in it. And the views from high above the San Francisco Bay are spectacular!
This small community is known for its top-rated elementary school, its quaint boutique store district and one of the most visited public libraries in the entire county. Its curvy tree-lined streets and cul-de-sacs enhance its charm and make it one of the East Bay’s most beautiful places to live.
Just a hop, skip and jump to the commercial district on Solano Ave, Kensington’s beautiful streets have their own allure. Still, for outdoors enthusiasts, easy access to Tilden park is key; Kensington residents can hike, cycle, take the kids to Little Farm and the carousel, all within minutes. And on Sunday there’s a Farmers Market at Colusa circle, a delicious feast for the eyes, ears and, of course, appetite.
