Property Description
Welcome to 2629 Kensington Drive - a thoughtfully upgraded, move-in-ready contemporary home in the highly desirable Norman Downes community of Duluth. Set on an elevated lot with views of the treetops and the quiet, walkable neighborhood, this home offers modern style, classic character, and unbeatable value.
Inside, the bright and open main level features luxury vinyl plank flooring, fresh paint, and all-new double-pane windows that flood the home with natural light. The heart of the home is a gourmet kitchen with gray soft-close cabinetry, quartz countertops, and new stainless steel appliances, seamlessly connecting to the dining area and spacious living room, all enhanced by recessed lighting.
A separate family room and a flexible oversized laundry room (ideal for a 5th bedroom or home office conversion) add functionality and flow to the layout. Upstairs, the primary suite includes new flooring, a beautifully updated ensuite bath with a frameless glass shower, new tile, double-sink vanity, and ample closet space. Three additional bedrooms offer plush carpet and plenty of room for family or guests.
Out back, a fenced yard and concrete patio provide privacy and potential for expanded outdoor living, entertaining, or play. The large 0.42-acre lot gives you space to breathe, while the fresh concrete and brick steps with railings add curb appeal.
Behind the walls, this home shines too:
New roof (2023)
HVAC replaced in last 2 years
Water heater replaced in 2025
All-new energy-efficient windows
Thick foam insulation in the attic for year-round efficiency
Located in top-rated school zones, just minutes from Downtown Duluth, Bunten Road Park, shopping, dining, and major commuter routes. The home is part of a welcoming swim & tennis community featuring a 23-acre lake, walking trails, and year-round neighborhood events.
Proudly owned by the original family and lovingly upgraded throughout, this is a home that's been truly cared for - ready for its next chapter.
