This nearly new home is within walking distance of Park Street shopping, new movie theater, new library, many restaurants, and Alameda High School.

The home was originally a Northern Pacific Train Station in San Francisco that was brought over on a barge in 1906 and placed on a large 7,000 square foot lot on Encinal Avenue, here on Alameda.

I purchased the home in 2004 and spent four years and approximately $300,000.00 expanding and updating it, while retaining its original historic character. This home was built with efficiency in mind. The use of a gas powered high efficiency forced air home heater, tank-less water heater, new efficient appliances, insulation, and skylights assure low utility bills. The large 4' by 4' skylights bring in allot of natural light throughout the day, eliminating the need for electric lighting in most rooms, including two 2x4 skylights in the attic.

All work done by permit and to code.

3 Bedrooms, 2.5 baths.

Skylights and high ceilings created very bright rooms.

All doors and windows have custom molding.

Crown molding and base molding throughout.

Restoration Hardware fixtures.

Kohler plumbing fixtures.

Painted in neutral colors inside and out.

Hardwood floors (Australian Cypress 3/4 inch thick).

New carpeting in all three bedrooms.

High efficiency Jeld-Wen windows (Double-pane, Argon Gas filled).

Good storage in large well lit attic (Two 2' X 4'skylights bring in allot of natural light).

New sewer lateral.

New one inch water main.

New gas line.

New drain line.
Automatic gas earthquake cutoff switch installed.

The custom kitchen has stainless steel appliances (Gas stove and oven, microwave-vent combination over stove, refrigerator (side by side), with filtered water and ice maker, dishwasher and custom breakfast bar with matching seating).

Tank-less Noritz Unlimited Hot water system-Gas.

High Efficiency home heating system-Gas.

New foundation and all plumbing (gas, water, drain lines).

All new complete electrical system.

Water and gas lines at rear of house for possible outdoor kitchen.

Master suite with walk in closet, French door leading to very large redwood deck. Master bath has a Jacuzzi tub, large 2-head rain shower, custom Travertine tile, new custom 3/8" glass door and panels, linen closet, granite topped sink base and Kohler toilet.

Bedroom 2 has a walk in closet

Bedroom 3 is the smallest of the three and has a beautiful half bath with pocket door, Kohler pedestal sink and toilet, granite floor, wainscoting, and good closet. It would make a good office or guest bedroom.

Bedrooms all have Hampton ceiling fans with integrated lighting.

Earthquake resistant Strong Wall bolted into trusses and foundation in walk in closet in bedroom 2.

Lights with dimmer switches throughout.

Large private, completely fenced 7,000 sq ft lot with lemon tree, plum tree, and pine tree with room for swimming pool, pond, etc.

Very large separate 2+ car redwood garage with new roof and stained glass side door, new underground electrical service and motion sensitive light with halogen bulbs.

All new concrete driveway, parking and turn around pad, and garage floor.

Excellent off street parking (room for 2 cars in garage and 2+ on parking pad) Also, there is a long driveway leading to the yard.

6 foot high custom Cedar fence with large locking gate (very private and secure, great for pets and children).

Separate gated recycling and trash container area.
Stained glass front door with Baldwin Lockset.

White picket fence around front yard with new cement walkway to front porch.

New sod front and rear lawns with automatic underground sprinkler system.

    "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. "

    "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."

    "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."
