Fall in love with this classic Alameda gem, ideally situated on a picturesque, tree lined stretch of Clay Street. Built in 1930 and brimming with vintage character, this 2 bedroom, 1 bath single-family home offers approximately 1,290 square feet of warm, inviting living space on a generous 3,813 square foot lot a rare find on the island. From the moment you arrive, the home's timeless appeal shines through. Period details blend seamlessly with everyday comfort, creating light-filled rooms that feel both storied and livable. The floor plan offers cozy, well-proportioned bedrooms and welcoming common areas made for relaxing and entertaining alike. With good bones and abundant charm, there's a wonderful opportunity to preserve the vintage character while adding your own personal touches. The sizable lot is a true standout, offering ample room for gardening, outdoor gatherings, play, or simply soaking up the Bay Area sunshine. Imagine morning coffee on the porch and weekend barbecues in your own private outdoor retreat, with space to expand or landscape to your heart's content. Location is everything, and this address delivers the quintessential Alameda lifestyle. You're moments from the shops, cafés, and restaurants of Park Street and Webster Street, with easy access to Crown Memorial State Beach, scenic waterfront paths, top-rated schools, and neighborhood parks. Commuters will love the nearby ferry to San Francisco, AC Transit lines, and quick connections to the 880 and the Bay's major job centers all wrapped in the small-town feel that makes island living so special. Homes with this much character in such a sought-after location are tightly held and rarely come to market.
