1427 bay st

Built in 1892 as a small Victorian high basement cottage, this now spacious home has been thoughtfully expanded & reimagined for contemporary needs & a modern lifestyle. Situated in a convenient central Alameda location near parks, schools & shopping, the home features 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, formal living and dining rooms, an updated kitchen, an attached garage and a lower level with an additional 744 SF of flexible bonus space. The present owners built an expansive primary bedroom/bathroom addition in 2018 (700 SF) that includes a large bedroom, a walk-in closet, cathedral ceilings, skylights, and a luxurious bathroom with a soaking tub, oversized shower, a double vanity and marble finishes. The finished lower level provides plenty of room for entertaining, a family room and/or a home office, plus direct access to the backyard and covered patio. Fresh interior paint, new light fixtures. Wood floors + dual-pane windows in most rooms. Updated electrical, plumbing + newer roof/water heater/furnaces and much more (see Disclosures for a full list). Located just 1/2 block to the ACTransit O bus to BART & the SF's Sales Force transportation hub, and close to both downtown Park St and Webster St amenities. Many thoughtful updates and remodels make this a truly exceptional Alameda home
