About this House

Located in Alameda’s Ballena Bay neighborhood, this unique waterfront home is a sailor’s dream with extensive harbor views and a private 50’ deep-water dock just steps from the house. Within walking distance of William G. Paden Elementary School and Encinal High School, this home is perfect for a growing family that enjoys the water, or for empty-nesters who wish to have unparalleled access for sailing the magnificent San Francisco Bay.

Built in 1987, this gorgeous home is located at the end of a cul-de-sac, with an exterior that has a distinct nautical, yet contemporary, feel. The dark brown clapboard siding contrasts wonderfully with the modern glass and aluminum garage door. The mature landscaping surrounds the house and provides a pop of color. A locked security gate next to the house provides access to private dock and personal boat slip in a small marina accessible only to homeowners.

The bright and open interior of the home consists of three bedrooms, including a master suite, a formal living room, formal dining room, family room, eat-in kitchen, sitting room, two full and one-half baths, a finished attic and attached garage. Vaulted ceilings throughout, an open floor plan, and an abundance of natural light in all of the rooms make this a warm, inviting home.

The family room to the left of the entrance is perfect for relaxing, and features a built-in wet bar and direct access to the garage. To the right of the entrance is the kitchen with an eat-in breakfast nook, hardwood floors and plenty of upper and lower cabinets. The large dining room off of the kitchen is spacious enough for either formal entertaining or informal group gatherings. This room flows directly into an open sitting room with a wood-burning fireplace and a wall of windows overlooking the small private marina, offering marina and harbor views.

Beyond the sitting room, the open and spacious formal living room features an entire wall of windows, including a sliding glass door that opens to the ipe deck, perfect for indoor/outdoor entertaining or for simply taking in the tranquility of the harbor. The living room boasts a gallery wall, a fireplace with a raised hearth, mantel and marble surround, and vaulted ceilings that expand to the upper level of the home.. The main level entry hallway also features a half bath with a linen closet, and a generous coat/utility closet that is large enough to accommodate storage.

The private master suite includes a spacious bedroom with double entry doors, water views, a vaulted ceiling in both the bedroom and bathroom, a wood-burning fireplace with a marble surround, and a second redwood deck. The en suite master bath has a separate water closet, a large, walk-in, glass-enclosed shower, a Jacuzzi soaking tub, and separate his-and-hers vanities. A spacious walk-in closet completes the suite.

There are two additional large bedrooms on the upper level that feature generous closets, vaulted ceilings, and large windows that provide abundant bright light in each room. One of the bedrooms has a built-in window seat that opens for storage. The two bedrooms share a full bathroom that has a shower/soaking tub configuration. Natural light enters the bathroom through a lovely, round, stained-glass window that depicts a sailboat rolling over the waves.

A full laundry room is conveniently located on the second floor, as is stairway access to a carpeted, finished attic with a large closet that is perfect for a small home office or as an additional storage space. The attic provides a wonderful opportunity for expansion; as some of the other homes in the neighborhood have already done.
