1149 Bay St, Alameda, CA 94501

Rarely available on Alameda’s Gold Coast is this architecturally rich 3-bed, 3-bath home with gracious living areas and many delightful, original features. Owned by the same family for nearly 100 years, 1149 Bay Street welcomes you with an entry and grand living room looking out onto the tree-lined cul-de-sac, and includes refinished hardwood floors, fireplace, casement windows with iron embellishments, and over height ceilings. The formal dining room features an arched built-in, spilling graciously onto the courtyard patio–an ideal location for casual gathering. The updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, modern counters, flooring, and lighting plus a generous breakfast nook, pantry, and updated full bathroom. A magical indoor atrium opens directly to the backyard, and to the detached garage. Upstairs find 3 bedrooms including a huge primary with en-suite bath, and a dual-roomed bedroom that could be an alternate primary suite or used as a bonus room. This bedroom opens to the sun porch overlooking the backyard. A jack-and-jill bathroom and more storage is on this floor as well, and there’s more storage in the basement. Coveted Bay Street is just blocks to Franklin School, multiple parks, and bayside trails leading you to beaches, bike trails, and the SF Ferry.
