Description
Set in Alameda's coveted Fernside District, this distinguished 1933 Mediterranean residence offers approximately 3,233 square feet of gracious living space, exceptionally generous room proportions and a rare combination of period architectural character and thoughtfully executed modern improvements. The home features expansive formal living and dining rooms, beautifully refinished original hardwood floors and fireplaces in both the living and family rooms. At the centerpiece of the residence is a completely renovated kitchen. The chef's kitchen includes a Sub-Zero French door refrigerator and a freestanding six burner Wolf dual-fuel range with a powerful overhead ventilation hood. The kitchen island includes a second oven, drawer microwave and a generous prep and serving area. Quartz countertops, floor to ceiling cabinetry and recessed and undercabinet LED lighting create a bright and airy kitchen. The adjoining family room is an entertainer’s delight which includes built-in cabinetry, quartz countertop and an undercounter wine refrigerator. Automated shades allow for control of natural lighting as well as privacy. An expansive wall of glass opens to the large and well-manicured private garden. The unusually flexible floor plan provides five exceptionally spacious bedrooms plus a den or sixth bedroom, 3.5 bathrooms and a charming upper-level bedroom with an architecturally integrated private balcony overlooking the beautiful tree-lined street. Ample storage is available in the expansive laundry area, linen closet, attic and basement space adding to the home's practicality. The private rear garden is designed for relaxed living and entertaining, with a broad flagstone patio, generous lawn, raised wood gazebo, and a covered outdoor area extending across the rear of the residence. An attached tandem garage and long driveway provides plentiful off street parking. This freshly painted interior and exterior of this exceptional Fernside residence is just blocks from Edison Elementary School and approximately a ten-minute stroll from shops, restaurants and amenities of Park Street.
