About this home

Never-before on the market. Own your own piece of mid-century history. In 1953, Robert F. Olwell was commissioned to design a family dream home in Kensington. Under the watchful eye of Sigrid Stamps, 629 Beloit was designed and built in the quintessential mid-century style popular at the time. Sited on a . 28 acre lot studded with oak trees, with views of the Bay and Tilden Park, sits this one of a kind home. True to its mid-century pedigree, 629 Beloit offers clean lines, floor-to-ceiling glass, restored wood paneling, and an easeful connection to nature. The home is designed to blend the indoor and the outdoor - a fitting treatment given the ambling and gorgeous yard, and its location overlooking the canyon. With over 2,300 square feet of living space, four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a formal dining room, and a second living space, you have room to spread out. All 4 bedrooms are surrounded by the natural setting and offer views into the canyon or toward the Bay. Zoned Kensington Hilltop Elementary school, just blocks to the Ye Old School Trail and trailheads into Tilden Park, and nestled on a quiet street, 629 Beloit is the perfect combination of style, amenities, and peace. Open Thurs. 10/19, 9:30am-12pm, Fri. 10/20, 5-7 pm, Sat. 10/21, 2-4pm & Sun. 10/22 & 10/29th, 2-4pm.
