Property description
Built in 1906, this lovely cottage-style shingled home has an exterior with timeless curb appeal and an interior filled with late Victorian details and charm. The 2-story main home has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, formal living and dining rooms, a spacious kitchen, and a mud room/laundry room, while the original detached garage consists of 3 separate finished spaces with baseboard heating + electricity (648 SF). Presently used for an office, studio and workshop, these large detached spaces offer attractive ADU conversion/renovation potential. The primary home has many original/vintage features, including hardwood floors, a gorgeous fireplace surround, high coved ceilings + bay windows. The spacious, eat-in kitchen has quartz counters, attractive light fixtures + high-end stainless steel appliances. Owned solar + newer roof + EV charger! The impressive, oversized backyard has mature landscaping, patios, raised planters + cherry, apple, Meyer lemon, lime and pomegranate trees. This desirable West End location is just 2 blocks to downtown Webster St amenities and the Farmers Market, and provides easy access to Washington Park, Crown Beach, the Seaplane Lagoon Ferry to SF, and the many breweries and attractions at Alameda Point!
