Description

This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from February 27, 2024
Expansive and altogether glamourous, this five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bathroom Mediterranean Revival basks on an elegant circular court with private waterfront backdrop. Level manicured grounds spotlight soaring palm trees, border a lagoon, and extend to a private dock. Home and property showcase preservation and restoration of architectural artistry circa 1927. In an optimal layout, exquisite, architecturally enchanting interior spaces open throughout the main floor to terrace and garden and to balconies from the second floor, where five bedrooms and four bathrooms include the lavish multi-chamber primary suite. Its highlights include a balcony, water view, marble-floored sunroom that doubles as an office, epic dressing room, and statement-piece bathroom. Comprehensive kitchen and bathroom renovations befit the home’s provenance and feature a luxe kitchen composition that extends to a butler’s pantry, and fireplace-equipped breakfast area with garden access.

What Locals Say about Bronze Coast

  • Trulia User
    "Lovely architecture to admire while walking the dog. Nearby parks and beaches are only 6 blocks away. Downside is that dogs aren’t allowed on the sand but you can walk on the sidewalks overlooking the water. Hardly any traffic so the streets are quiet. People with dogs give other dogs lots of space. Rare to see dog waste not cleaned up-though it happens. "

    "sensor lights should be place on all areas of your house to deter anyone from coming if they are not invited to visit. and a alarm if they are to close to the house or apt."

    "I am not sure what to say here. I moved here in March 2019 and I am so happy living in such a place. I love that I can walk to the beach, and walk along the bay and see San Francisco in the distance."

    "I’ve only been living here for a month now and I’m very happy about the walkability around here. I’ve been living in Tx for the past 5 years living in the burbs right outside Houston where there’s no public transportation, sidewalks, bike lanes etc. Tx isn’t pedestrian friendly at all so it’s good being back in CA."

    "Friendly: older neighbors are welcoming to younger owners moving in. Slowly gentrifying (younger generation Alameda born are moving out). Lots of younger renters (30-40) too."

    "It’s awesome! I live right on a lagoon and I have a kayak I take out on it. The beach is 3 blocks and Park St is a 15 min walk. Super safe and neighborhood is friendly. Flat and great for biking and running. Traffic is better here than most places in Bay. I take a ferry to SF for work which is a wonderful way to commute. Love it!"

    "Alameda's close proximity to San Francisco makes it convenient to Silicon Valley too, but at a fraction of the price. Super cute older homes and a close knit neighborhood feel is felt throughout the island. We don't have cross traffic being an island which gives us an identity like no other city in the entire San Francisco metropolitan area. As for the city itself, Alameda is safe, has good schools, is charming quaint, and quiet with plenty of shops, restaurants, movie theatre, walking and bike trails. I've lived all over the bay area and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else but Alameda."
