$995,000 - 524 Kenilworth Ave, San Leandro

San Leandro Home Sale

This home has heart—quietly beautiful, full of character, and unforgettable. Built in 1925, 524 Kenilworth blends era charm with thoughtful modern updates. Level-in living and an intuitive floor plan offer ease and comfort. At the center, an architect-designed kitchen features custom cabinetry, clean lines, and a welcoming island. The adjacent dining and living rooms have large windows, hardwood floors, a fireplace, and a cozy built-in reading nook.Three bedrooms and two baths each have distinct personality. One bath is boldly modern with a skylit walk-in shower and handmade tile; the other retains vintage charm with fresh touches. Major system upgrades include plumbing, electrical, solar, and an EV charger. A sustainably sourced Pakari wood deck spans the back of the home and opens to a truly magical yard. Nearly a quarter-acre, it’s filled with mature trees, sitting areas, and a bounty of fruit—Fuji apple, Santa Rosa plum, Satsuma mandarin, Meyer lemon, and avocado. Lavender, rosemary, agaves, and pollinator-friendly plants add to the magic. A 500 sq ft artist studio with soaring ceilings and walls of windows offers grand potential for an ADU. Located in Broadmoor near beloved Roosevelt Elementary and restaurants, this home is a rare find.
