Property Description
Nestled in the heart of Avondale Estates, 13 Kensington Road is the kind of home that feels like it belongs in a Southern storybook, where neighbors wave from front porches, tree-lined streets invite evening strolls, and community is more than just a buzzword. Celebrating its 100th birthday this year, this historically significant home is one of the first homes built in Avondale Estates and offers a rare connection to the city’s earliest days. Set on a beautiful, oversized, flat lot, the home combines historic charm with the everyday comforts of a wonderful neighborhood setting. The screened porch is a favorite gathering spot and a perfect place to relax and enjoy the beauty of the property. Living in Avondale Estates means easy access to Bess Walker Park and Avondale Lake, Avondale Swim & Tennis Club, the Avondale Estates Square and thriving business district, Willis Park, The Museum School, and a short drive or bike ride to downtown Decatur. A truly special home, a remarkable lot, and a location that captures the very best of Avondale Estates.
