About this House

Storybook Charm with Voluminous Rooms + Expansion Potential on an Oversized Alameda Lot = Your Dream Home. Tucked behind a lush lawn with mature foliage and a long driveway, this 1920s English Cottage–style gem is a rare find. With 1,846 sq ft on a huge 7,000 sq ft lot, it offers character, space, and potential. Step inside the show-stopping living room with a barrel-vaulted ceiling, fireplace with detailed surround, and large picture windows that flood the space with light—like your own vintage ballroom. Generously sized rooms create a gracious, welcoming atmosphere that invites you to relax and feel at home. Original hardwood floors have been professionally resurfaced, and period details like coved ceilings and wood trim enhance the charm, while a newer furnace and central AC provide modern comfort. The traditional layout includes a formal dining room and cozy breakfast nook. The kitchen & bath retain their vintage appeal and present an opportunity to customize. Legally a 2-bed, 1-bath, the home also includes a generous upstairs space—currently a 3rd bedroom—with potential for a luxe primary suite. The detached garage offers ADU potential, with possible room for another in the deep backyard. Restore, expand, or enjoy as-is—this Alameda home is ready for your next chapter.

    "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. "
  • Trulia User
    "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."
  • Trulia User
    "There are many people walking their dogs in the neighborhood. There are also 2 off leash dog parks on the island. "
  • Ali L.
    "I feel safe walking my dogs at any time of the day or night. There are lots of dogs but owners are respectful."
  • Hvlaity
    "Very easy to commute to work in Oakland and drive to San Francisco on the weekends. Also easy to grab groceries and run errands in the area "
  • Hyejin
    "I meet several dog owners everyday when I walked with kids. They are happy to walk with dogs and smile at me and greeting friendly "
  • Susan K.
    "20 minutes into the Temescal neighborhood of Oakland - morning commute. Evening commute can be 35 minutes."
  • Trulia User
    "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."
  • Courtney G.
    " This neighborhood has parks and schools within walking distances. I often see parents walking with their kids"
  • Tanita M.
    "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."
  • Trulia User
    "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."
  • Orange Crow
    "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!"
  • Markvasquez95
    "it's a busy street that connects to everything . i can easily get to where i wanna get to on the bus and the neighborhood is very quiet. "
  • Cceres
    "Life slows down once you cross the Alameda town line. Community feel and only a ferry ride away from San Francisco. "
  • Patrice A.
    "Alameda is a family friendly city that does not like speeders. We have great food and people don't like to leave the island u less they must. it was beautiful bike paths."
  • Feliciasmoore
    "I've lived in this neighborhood for 9 years. The area is quiet and clean. There is a regular police presence. Rent is very high though."
  • Guy B.
    "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."
  • William
    "I OWN A PLACE AROUND THE COURNER SEVERAL OF MY FRIENDS ARE LOOKING TO BUY HERE. LIVE IN ONE UNIT WHILE RENTING THE OTHERS. WE HAVE COFFE SHOPS, SMALL GROCERIE STORE, MOVIE THEATER, RESTRAUNT'S, ALAMEDA MUSEUM, PUBLIC TENNIS COURT'S ALL WITH IN A SHORT WALKING DISTANCE "
