Property Description
Designed in 1957 by Harry Nakahara, a Bay Area mid-century modernist and protégé of John Carl Warnecke, this upper Kensington gem embodies the belief that architecture should respond to its landscape rather than overpower it. Much of the home remains in original condition, and the warmth of wood set against textural concrete, and the quality of light moving through the rooms, feel as deliberate today as they did at its completion. The living room announces this immediately: floor-to-ceiling windows frame sweeping Bay and Marin Headland views, while mahogany-paneled walls, beamed ceilings, and refinished hardwood floors create an atmosphere that rewards an unhurried life. The eat-in kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with a breakfast bar, every improvement made in service of the original architecture rather than in spite of it. The expansive deck was made for sunset gatherings, its panoramic views shifting through their colors as friends linger and the evening settles in. The terraced backyard features mature loquat, plum, and cherry trees, and a treehouse. Three bedrooms on one level; the primary includes a private office. Renovated bath, covered parking, full laundry. One block from Blake Garden; easy walk to Kensington Circle, the Sunday Farmers' Market, and Benchmark Pizza.
