Kensington Homes in Easley, SC with Lake and Pond Scenery

Kensington stands out in Easley for custom single-family homes on homesites that are noticeably larger than the typical newer subdivision. The neighborhood's housing record runs from 1989 through 2020, with most lots clustering around one-half to three-quarters of an acre and select properties stretching close to two acres. Current community stats show just one active listing and four sales over the last year, which fits the low-turnover pattern attached to the neighborhood.

Community Highlights

Most Kensington listings center on four- and five-bedroom floor plans with generous secondary spaces. Bonus rooms, flex rooms, walk-in attic storage, and workshops show up repeatedly, and garages appear in more than half of all listing records. Kitchens are often updated with granite or quartz counters, while hardwood floors, fireplaces, built-in cabinetry, and screened or covered outdoor rooms give many homes a more tailored, custom-home feel. Brick is mentioned frequently, but not universally; the streetscape mixes brick homes with brick-and-stone combinations and other exterior materials rather than following a single finish across the neighborhood.

The neighborhood also carries a meaningful range in home style and scale. Basements appear in about one-third of listing records, often as walkout levels with media rooms, second living areas, or workshop space. Private pools appear in nearly a quarter of listings, including heated and saltwater examples, which is unusually high for a neighborhood without a resort-style amenity package. Audley Court sits at the top end of Kensington's price ladder, with the highest average closed-sale pricing and some of the community's largest homesites.
