    What's special

    Modern Comfort. Coastal Cool. Your Alameda Escape. 1230 Ballena is not your cookie-cutter townhome; it is a 2-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom Ballena Bay stunner that blends edge with ease. Over 1,600 sqft of radiance, glass, and flow, anchored by vaulted ceilings and skylights that flood the living room with natural light. Think late-night conversations by the fire, a patio begging for champagne brunches that linger into the afternoon, a second living area to unwind, and two generously sized bedrooms upstairs that double as private escapes. The vibe? Resort living with a wink. The Ballena Bay HOA brings resort energy with a sparkling pool, lush grounds, and the simplicity of low-maintenance living. Location? Unmatched. Steps to the Marina, Pier 29, and Near Crown Memorial State Beach, Webster Street eateries, Alameda Point’s Spirit Alley, and South Shore Center, with quick connections to the SF Bay Ferry, bus lines, and I-880. 1230 Ballena is not just real estate, it is a lifestyle. Ballena Bay with bite.
