Property Description
Step into timeless character redefined by master craftsmanship. Lovingly upgraded and maintained by its 40-year contractor owners, this expanded 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom 1905 Craftsman offers a seamless blend of original historic charm and modern utility. Freshly painted inside and out, the home showcases meticulously preserved period woodwork upstairs and an expertly matched 2002 main-floor addition. Every square foot reflects intentional design, from new energy- and noise-efficient windows, custom blinds, and refinished hardwoods to custom cabinetry featuring heavy-duty Blum hardware. The living room welcomes you with original woodwork, bay windows, a built-in window seat, and custom cabinetry with stained-glass doors complete with a built-in Bose speaker system. Adjacent, the dining room retains its original board-and-batten walls and a refurbished hutch. The gourmet kitchen features soapstone counters, a country sink, Kraft-Maid and custom cabinetry with smart storage solutions, and stainless steel KitchenAid appliances. The primary suite serves as a luxurious retreat, featuring a custom dresser, built-in jewelry box, Carrara marble side tables, and a fluted glass privacy door separating the sleeping and sitting areas. Its ensuite bathroom boasts rich Carrara marble, a deep soaking tub, bidet, and a custom glass shower. Downstairs, the family room offers built-in office space and expansive storage closets, served by a spacious full bathroom with Silestone finishes. Thoughtfully equipped with upstairs ceiling fans, a functional laundry room with utility sink and LG appliances, an attached garage, and off-street parking for three vehicles, this home leaves no detail overlooked. Outside, an exceptional retreat awaits: a landscaped yard, deck, old-brick patio, gazebo, built-in private seating, outdoor storage, and a fully permitted backyard office ideal for remote work. Positioned in one of Alameda’s most desirable neighborhoods, this location offers an unmatched Bay Area lifestyle. Walk or bike just blocks to vibrant Webster Street and Park Street dining, local boutiques, and the historic West End Arts District. Commuting is effortless: take the nearby Alameda Ferry directly to San Francisco’s Ferry Building in under twenty minutes, catch express AC Transit buses across the Bay, or drive minutes to major highways. Enjoy total peace of mind surrounded by local schools, pristine parks, and the scenic waterfront promenade at Crown Memorial State Beach.
