524 Kenilworth Ave San Leandro, CA 94577

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.
