A Bright End-Unit Home in a Welcoming Foster City Community.


Bright, spacious, and ideally positioned as an end unit, 653 Celestial Lane offers the ease of townhome living with the comfort of single-family style access in one of Foster City’s most pleasant community settings. Just down the street, Seal Slough brings one of the city’s beloved waterways into view, while surrounding green space, mature landscaping, and nearby parks create an everyday environment that feels open, connected, and distinctly Foster City. As a corner home, natural light moves through the interior from morning to evening, creating bright living spaces throughout the day.

Garden Walkway and a Welcoming Front Door


From the parking area, a broad green lawn weaves its way through the community, with a sidewalk lined by mature landscaping guiding you to the front door. A bright red paneled wood door opens into the entry, where floating open stairs immediately catch the eye and bring architectural interest to the space.


The entry is both welcoming and practical, with a coat closet tucked beneath the stairs, a powder room finished with parquet floors and a freshly painted vanity, and direct access to the attached two-car garage with laundry.

A Gracious Living Room Centered Around the Fireplace


To the left of the entry, the living room unfolds as a generous gathering space anchored by a wood-burning fireplace with a gas starter. A large picture window fills the room with natural light, while the sliding glass door draws the eye toward the dining area and patio beyond.

Dining with an Easy Connection to the Patio


Just beyond the living room, the dining area sits perfectly positioned between the kitchen and outdoor space. The sliding glass door opens directly to the patio, allowing the indoor spaces to flow naturally outward for everyday living or casual entertaining. The patio also includes a gate that opens directly to the surrounding greenbelt space, creating an easy connection between the home and the community lawn beyond.

A Kitchen Designed for Seamless Cooking


The kitchen is thoughtfully arranged in an ideal layout that balances efficiency with generous workspace. Maple shaker cabinetry offers abundant storage, complemented by expansive granite countertops and a peninsula with breakfast bar seating that opens comfortably to the dining room.



A suite of stainless steel appliances brings a modern touch, while the window over the sink looks out toward the entry walkway and surrounding greenery.

Oversized Patio Ready for Outdoor Living


The sliding glass door opens to an enclosed concrete patio that creates a true extension of the home’s living space. There is ample room for outdoor dining, weekend barbecues, container gardening, or simply enjoying Foster City’s fabulous climate. Because the home sits on a corner position within the community, the patio enjoys an open outlook and a direct connection to the surrounding green space.

A Vaulted Primary Suite with Light and Space


Upstairs, the primary suite enjoys vaulted ceilings and a wide bank of windows overlooking the community, giving the room an open, airy presence. The ensuite bath features a wide stone countertop vanity and a glass-enclosed shower finished with porcelain tile.

Comfortable Secondary Bedrooms and Balcony Views


The additional three bedrooms offer flexibility for a range of household needs. One bedroom opens to a balcony overlooking the patio and grassy pathway below, while another shares that pleasant outlook. A third bedroom enjoys its own view across the community.



They are served by a spacious hall bath designed to comfortably support a busy household, finished with a wide stone countertop vanity that provides generous prep space, porcelain tile flooring and surround, and a shower over tub. The layout allows multiple people to move through the space easily during the rhythms of daily life. Both upstairs bathrooms have been updated with refreshed finishes, including modern hardware and fixtures.
