East End charm meets modern California living in this beautifully reimagined Alameda bungalow. Thoughtfully renovated just three years ago, this two-bedroom home lives far larger than its footprint, offering a bright, efficient floor plan designed for comfort, style, and everyday functionality. Timeless character pairs effortlessly with curated modern upgrades throughout. The open-concept living and dining spaces flow seamlessly into a beautifully updated kitchen featuring quartz countertops, designer finishes, abundant cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances — ideal for entertaining or easy everyday living. Every inch of the home has been intentionally designed to maximize space, light, and livability. Two well-appointed bedrooms featuring California Closets are complemented by a thoughtfully updated bathroom with custom tile work and elevated finishes that give the home a polished, boutique feel. A versatile bonus space off the rear of the home offers incredible flexibility — perfect for a home office, creative studio, guest space, or potential third bedroom. Updated flooring, stackable washer and dryer, and a newer foundation offer both style and peace of mind. Perfectly positioned in Alameda’s coveted East End, this location places you moments from Park Street shopping and dining, Encinal Market, Nob Hill Foods, local cafés, Lincoln Park, shoreline paths, top-rated schools, and convenient commuter access to BART, I-880, and the SF Ferry. Compact in size but rich in lifestyle, design, flexibility, and location — this is the kind of home you've been waiting for.
