About this House

Step into history. Built in 1912, the owners purchased the home in 1984 and meticulously restored the home to its original charm over the course of ten years, while updating the essential systems of the home. Since then it has been featured in: books on Craftsman architecture, magazines on kitchen remodeling, catalogs for wallpaper; and it has been on many historic home tours. The kitchen is the only room that was not restored to its original condition. The owners took it down to the studs and designed a space that worked for them, while staying true to the style of the home. The cabinet design was inspired by a Gustav Stickley furniture catalog. They were custom built from quarter-sawn oak and fumed to create the rich honey color. The copper cabinet hardware and the copper stove hood were hand made by the owners. Located on the very desirable east end of Alameda, if you love Arts & Crafts architecture, you will love this home.
2901 Central Ave, Alameda, CA 94501 is a 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom, 2,800 sqft single-family home in Fernside, built in 1912. It last sold for $1,810,000 on Oct 31, 2019. It is currently off market. The Trulia Estimate is $2,437,200, with a rent estimate of $7,639/month.

    "The bus is always running late or early but if you have their app it is very manageble. Around 5 minute walk to get to the park, 5-20 minutes to the nearest store, and very close to reasturants only a mile."

    "Very small town feel. Lots of friendly people always walking around and kids riding bikes. Close walking distance to transportation, schools, restaurants, movie theater, and most stores and services that you would need. "

    "This part of Alameda's East End is superb for those who like to walk instead of driving to all of the daily stops like shopping, eating out, dropping the kids off to elementary school. The neighborhood has homeowners and renters of all ages who are community minded and look out for one another. And we can't forget about the incredible architecture found all over Alameda either. Homes date back to the late 1800's and feature some of the most beautiful charming details you will ever see in a home. "
