Property Description

Rare opportunity to restore a spacious 5-bedroom detached Colonial in the heart of Kensington. Ideally located just minutes from Prospect Park, neighborhood parks, shopping, dining, and public transportation, this property offers the perfect combination of location and potential. In need of a complete renovation, this home is ideal for investors, contractors, or end users looking to customize a home to their own style and specifications. The main level features a large eat-in kitchen, formal dining room, spacious living room, and an enclosed sunroom with access to the rear yard.
