In a market where many homes feel interchangeable, this one has an unforgettable point of view. It's 1 of only 4 known residences in Salinas attributed to William Kesling, a Los Angeles designer known for bringing Streamline Moderne, aka Hollywood Moderne, to CA. That influence shows up in the home's curves, windows, & imagery of motion & speed, giving it an architectural pedigree. What stands out is the volume & feel the moment you walk in. The ceilings lift higher than you expect, the light moves from room to room, & there's a sense that the home was designed to be lived in. The lucky owner of this home will enjoy a formal dining room with incredible natural light, invited by a glass block wall. The living room with large windows & sliding doors to the backyard is anchored by a fireplace with room for formal & informal seating areas. Underfoot, you'll find a mix of original hardwood flooring and updated tile in the bathrooms and kitchen - consistent with the home's character. The layout itself is balanced: 2 BR and 1 BA upstairs and 2 BR and 1 BA downstairs. Step outside & the lot opens to give you options: gardening, play, or simply enjoying the existing fruit and holly trees that add a bit of permanence, charm and privacy. Plus a detached 2 car garage with workshop space.
