Overview

Description

Welcome to 1340 Keston – A Mid-Century Gem with Endless Possibilities! Offers will be reviewed on Monday, April 21 @ noon. Step into this charming 1953 mid-century home, ideally set up as a duplex with an additional studio living space on the 1st floor. While currently used as a single-family residence, the flexible layout offers incredible potential—whether you're looking to generate rental income, create a private guest suite for friends or extended family, or simply enjoy the layout as-is. You’ll immediately be drawn to the stunning views from the living room and the abundance of natural light that fills the home. Furnace is approximately 3 years old; seller has contacted the city to close the permit. All windows in the house have been updated. In the mid-1990s, a $53K custom wall was added around the backyard, creating a private outdoor space filled with mature perennials and landscaping. Classic built-ins add character and convenience, with thoughtful storage throughout the living room, hallway, and even the basement. Move in and enjoy!
