About Kensington

Kensington is a mature and vibrant neighbourhood known for its charming streetscapes and community-focused atmosphere.

Families appreciate the proximity of educational institutions such as Kensington High School and Windermere Primary School. Outdoor activities and relaxation are easily enjoyed at Kensington Park, and weekends offer diverse leisure options including the Century City Dining District, GrandWest Casino and Entertainment World, or a trip to Milnerton Beach.
