What's around 71 Norwood Ave

About this property

Nestled in a park-like setting, 71 Norwood Ave. sits on one of Kensington’s most beloved streets, where neighbors chat and life feels just a little slower. It is here where a simply sweet home lives and a magical garden unfolds—sun-drenched, private, and alive with charm. Set back from the street, this unassuming 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath home features original Craftsman details combined with modern updates. The open living room and dining room are graced by untouched mouldings and built-ins, south-west facing wooden windows and a gas fireplace. Two bedrooms share a tastefully updated bath, while the cheerful eat-in kitchen delights with a beautiful backsplash and charming dining nook with a custom-built table and bench seating. Down a few steps, a cozy home office and a half bath opens through French doors to a serene garden retreat. Off the kitchen a deck awaits—perfect for morning coffee and early evening meals; wander down to the expansive yard, where sunlight pours in before softening into dappled shade beneath a majestic heritage oak. Take a seat and close your eyes; you will forget that you are only moments from the Kensington library, Young’s Market and the weekly farmer’s market—only to realize what a gem you have found in this small town.

Buyer's review

about 2 months ago

Exceptional, patient, honest, and truly dedicated to finding us the right home

We met our Bahareh at an open house about nine months ago, and from that very first conversation, it was clear we were in great hands. What began as a casual introduction turned into one of the best decisions we made throughout our entire home-buying journey. Over the course of nine months, we put in offers on multiple homes in a competitive market. Through every offer, every rejection, and every new listing, Bahareh was right there with us never losing enthusiasm and never making us feel like we were taking up too much of her time. Whenever we spotted a property we wanted to see, she was always ready to schedule a private showing, often on very short notice. We cannot recommend Bahareh highly enough. If you want an agent who will be patient, protective of your interests, and committed to the long haul, look no further.
