Kentfield Real Estate – year-End 2025
Kentfield Summary
Kentfield’s market in 2025 reflected a more deliberate buyer pool and slightly reduced urgency. Transaction volume softened from the prior year, signaling a market defined more by intention, as buyers became increasingly selective at the upper end. Notably, sales of homes priced above $5 million declined by more than 50%, with 8 homes sold compared to 20 in 2024.
While the average sale price adjusted from 2024’s peak levels, pricing on a per-square-foot basis remained robust—underscoring the enduring premium placed on Kentfield’s architectural quality, privacy, and exceptional setting. Buyers continued to reward well-designed homes in prime locations, particularly those offering turnkey condition and thoughtful upgrades.
Competitive intensity moderated in the second half of the year, with fewer properties selling over asking and longer timelines to secure escrow. However, the consistency of multiple-offer activity and steady premiums paid above list price illustrate a market where standout properties still command decisive action. When value, presentation, and pricing aligned, buyers were willing to compete.
In essence, 2025 marked a return to a more balanced market—one driven by fundamentals rather than frenzy. Sellers who approached the market with precision and realism achieved strong outcomes, while buyers benefited from a more measured pace without sacrificing quality. As 2026 approaches, Kentfield remains firmly positioned as a premier enclave where long-term value and lifestyle continue to define demand.
