A rare live-work opportunity on a full acre in historic Preston. Originally established as a railroad and coal mining community in the late 1800s, Preston retains its small-town character, rural atmosphere, and convenient access to the Eastside. This partially updated single-story home features recent engineered hardwood flooring and offers a solid foundation for the next owner. While many improvements have already been made, there is still room to add value with paint, finishing touches, and personalization. The standout feature is the large, highly usable shop with its own separate electrical meter, providing exceptional flexibility for contractors, tradespeople, hobbyists, collectors, or anyone needing workspace and storage. Unique historical commercial use creates opportunities rarely found on acreage properties (buyer to verify all uses). The expansive yard provides ample room for vehicles, trailers, equipment, RVs, and projects. Enjoy the peaceful setting of Preston while being just minutes from I-90, Issaquah Highlands, Fall City, and Snoqualmie Valley amenities. A hard-to-find combination of home, shop, land, flexibility, and future potential in one of the Eastside’s most desirable rural communities. Potential USDA financing may be available for qualified buyers; buyers should verify eligibility and financing options with their lender.
