Description

Situated on a tree-lined street in the sought-after East End neighborhood, this 1907 brown shingle Craftsman has curb appeal, charm and a prime location! The 2-level home is unusually spacious for a vintage Craftsman cottage (1,822 SF), and features 4 BR, 2BA, formal living and dining rooms, plus a large, beautifully remodeled kitchen/breakfast room. The exterior has loads of vintage Craftsman cottage appeal complemented by multiple roof lines, a curated mature garden and a wide front sitting porch, while the interior is a blend of early 20th century architectural details w/thoughtful 21st century additions and conveniences. Original details include hardwood floors, a box beam DR ceiling, Douglas fir door and window trim, built-in bookcases, a china cabinet/sideboard and an impressive brick/stone fireplace with wood stove insert. The large, remodeled kitchen is a cook's dream, fitted w/granite counters, abundant custom cabinets + kitchen storage. Both the kitchen & primary bedroom have sliding doors that open to a spacious backyard deck for entertaining or relaxing. Located just 2 blocks to Lincoln Park/pool and the San Leandro Bay shoreline, the home is close to Encinal Market, Edison Elementary & Lincoln Middle schools. A wonderful home in a sought-after Alameda neighborhood!

    "Good schools. Great parks. Active park district and sports activities. More families have moved here over the past 10 years."
  • Jennifer K.
    "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."
  • Brian L.
    "Fernside Blvd is a high traffic street so you must monitor young kids when they are playing outside."
  • specialfx35
    "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. "
  • Guy B.
    "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. "
