Unit Features
Units at The Sycamore are 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, ranging from approximately 1,085 to 1,445 square feet depending on the specific unit and floor level. Every unit includes a private patio or balcony accessed through large sliding glass doors that bring natural light into the living area — one of the defining features of the building's design. Many units have been updated over the years with hardwood floors, renovated kitchens with quartz countertops and stainless appliances, updated bathrooms, and in-unit laundry, while retaining the generous room sizes and open living-dining layouts that made the original floor plan appealing.
Building Features
The Sycamore is a secured, elevator-access building — a combination that makes it genuinely accessible for residents at all stages of life. Each unit comes with 2 assigned parking spaces: one in the shared secured garage and one covered carport space, both located close to the building entrance. Additional storage is included. The building's small size — 24 units — keeps HOA management straightforward and fosters the kind of neighbor familiarity that larger complexes rarely offer.

Recent sales at The Sycamore have ranged from approximately $650K to $800K+ for 2BR/2BA units, with the spread reflecting differences in floor level, unit size, and the extent of interior updates. Current listings are in the $775K–$799K range, positioning The Sycamore as one of the more accessible full-service condo options in Central Alameda for buyers who want two bedrooms, two full baths, private outdoor space, and two parking spaces in a single package.
Prime Central Alameda Location
The Sycamore's location on Central Avenue places it within easy walking distance of downtown Park Street — Alameda's main commercial corridor, with locally owned restaurants, boutiques, bakeries, coffee shops, and the historic Alameda Theater — and within a few blocks of South Shore Center, where Safeway, Trader Joe's, Kohl's, and a full range of everyday retailers are concentrated. Franklin Park is nearby for outdoor recreation, and Robert Crown Memorial State Beach — Alameda's mile-long shoreline on San Francisco Bay, popular with walkers, cyclists, windsurfers, and kiteboard riders — is minutes away on foot or by bike.
For commuters, AC Transit bus lines serving the building connect to the Posey Tube and Oakland in one direction and to South Shore in the other. Fruitvale BART is approximately 2.4 miles away, and Oakland International Airport is about 5 miles from the building — making The Sycamore a practical choice for frequent travelers as well as daily commuters.
Outdoor Lifestyle
Alameda's flat terrain and bike-friendly streets make the island uniquely accessible without a car, and The Sycamore's central location puts much of the island's recreational infrastructure within easy cycling distance. Crown Memorial State Beach's multi-use path runs along the entire southern shoreline; the Alameda Landing waterfront is a short ride to the west; Park Street and its weekend foot traffic is walkable to the east. For residents who want to be close to everything Alameda offers without the maintenance demands of a single-family home, The Sycamore delivers a low-maintenance entry point into one of the East Bay's most desirable island communities.
