A covered front porch creates a welcoming entrance, while original woodwork, a detailed staircase, and a decorative fireplace highlight the home's classic charm. A separate dining room provides additional gathering space, and the unfinished basement offers storage and access to utilities. Previously reported improvements include a water heater replaced in 2018, an electrical breaker box update in 2021, three front windows replaced in 2024, and new storm doors and a front entry door in 2025. Buyers should verify improvement details and dates. The layout also presents potential for conversion into a duplex for investors interested in exploring a two-unit rental strategy.

Conveniently located near downtown Dayton, Kettering Health Dayton, the Dayton Art Institute, and major highway connections, this property offers access to employment, dining, entertainment, and local amenities. With current rental income, spacious interiors, and potential for future reconfiguration, this home deserves a closer look. Currently tenant-occupied at $1,400 per month, the home generates $16,800 in scheduled annual gross rent before expenses, offering an established rental history and room to explore future possibilities. ## Location - **Address:** 434 Forest Avenue, Dayton, OH 45405 - **County:** Montgomery - **Neighborhood:** City/Dayton Rev - **Coordinates:** 39.771923, -84.20132 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=39.771923,-84.20132 ## Listing Agent - **Name:** Leah Ranchel - **Brokerage:** Keller Williams Advisors Realty - **Broker Phone:** (513) 766-9200 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/434-Forest-Ave_Dayton_OH_45405_M41938-68860?f=listhub&s=DABROH&m=971376&c=propsimple) ## Photos ![434 Forest Avenue - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e4031f5d5b54e21d88402b874af02a95l-f255189574r.jpg) ![434 Forest Avenue - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e4031f5d5b54e21d88402b874af02a95l-f2954506370r.jpg) ![434 Forest Avenue - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e4031f5d5b54e21d88402b874af02a95l-f3719672920r.jpg) ![434 Forest Avenue - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e4031f5d5b54e21d88402b874af02a95l-f2833537079r.jpg) ![434 Forest Avenue - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e4031f5d5b54e21d88402b874af02a95l-f549583020r.jpg) ![434 Forest Avenue - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e4031f5d5b54e21d88402b874af02a95l-f1988564796r.jpg) ![434 Forest Avenue - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e4031f5d5b54e21d88402b874af02a95l-f2361098569r.jpg) ![434 Forest Avenue - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e4031f5d5b54e21d88402b874af02a95l-f1530941188r.jpg) ![434 Forest Avenue - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e4031f5d5b54e21d88402b874af02a95l-f3598323516r.jpg) ![434 Forest Avenue - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e4031f5d5b54e21d88402b874af02a95l-f377534747r.jpg) ![434 Forest Avenue - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e4031f5d5b54e21d88402b874af02a95l-f2178937389r.jpg) ![434 Forest Avenue - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e4031f5d5b54e21d88402b874af02a95l-f2869896191r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 971376 | **Updated:** 2026-10-28 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 Dayton Realtors.
