1101 Keystone is one of the most impressive stone houses ever built in Reno. Built by Frank Pratt around 1914, it is located on the site of the old Pratt Ranch.
As you approach the home, the masonry skills of the builder are evident with stone pillars and stone faced steps leading to the original front door. The exterior walls of copper ore have a golden hue and are perforated with tall windows that allow sunlight to fill every room of the interior. Upon entering, you are greeted by a native stone fireplace in the large living room with coffered ceilings overhead. The craftsmanship and attention to detail in every aspect of this home is incredible. The interior walls are lined with wainscoting topped with deep plate rails supported by decorative brackets. Two large built-in book cases with glass doors separate the living room from the dining room and one has a built in reading bench. In the spacious dining room, you will find and an enormous built in china cabinet with leaded glass doors and original brass hardware. The kitchen has ample windows overlooking the back yard, original cabinetry and a large enameled cast iron farmhouse sink. There are three bedrooms and two bathrooms on the main level and two bedrooms and a large bathroom on the second level. A large deck is accessed from the primary bedroom upstairs. The daylight basement has two separate areas: one half is an apartment with a kitchen, full bathroom and a private entrance and the other half has ample storage. Situated on a large .86 acre lot, this property also includes a two story duplex and a small stone house. This home has only had three owners in the 108 years since it was built. Property is in need of some work, but provides unlimited potential an a completely unique opportunity for a new owner.
