Another sliding glass door to the patio makes for great dining al fresco. Four roomy bedrooms and two full baths tucked away for privacy; two in each wing (one side making an ideal primary suite with den/office or guest room).

Out your front door, explore miles trails in the East Bay parks and Kensington village.
