Welcome to Kensington Gardens, a mature, tree-lined neighbourhood in north Brantford. The front garden was professionally landscaped in 2022 with low-maintenance perennials, while the new concrete landing and stairs, completed in July 2026, create a fresh and welcoming entrance. Inside, wide-plank luxury vinyl flooring flows throughout the main level, complemented by fresh neutral paint and California shutters in the bright living room and bedrooms. The updated kitchen features refinished cabinetry, granite countertops and backsplash, all completed in 2025, plus plenty of storage and a mobile island with seating. Two bedrooms and a separate den/office provide flexibility, with the den opening through double garden doors to the expansive back deck. The fully fenced backyard is centred around a large in-ground pool with plenty of greenspace for kids, pets and guests. A permanent cabana provides a comfortable place to relax, while a saltwater system and Rheem heater were added in 2023. The Hayward pump was installed in 2008, the liner replaced in 2011, and the Hayward robotic cleaner with caddy is approximately seven years old. The pool is professionally closed annually by Hooton Pools. The oversized garage provides convenient side entry to the finished basement, featuring a spacious family room with storage cabinetry, bathroom, laundry area and three additional finished rooms offering flexibility for guests, hobbies, a home office, gym or additional living space. Basement flooring was updated throughout in 2024. Located close to shopping, restaurants, hospitals, schools and the Rail Trail, with convenient access to a main artery and quick routes to Paris, St. George, Cambridge and Hamilton. With thoughtful updates, a flexible layout and a backyard built for outdoor enjoyment, this home offers plenty of space to settle in and make it your own. (id:24093)
