Situated on a tree-lined street in the sought-after East End neighborhood, this 1907 brown shingle Craftsman has curb appeal, charm and a prime location! The 2-level home is unusually spacious for a vintage Craftsman cottage (1,822 SF), and features 4 BR, 2BA, formal living and dining rooms, plus a large, beautifully remodeled kitchen/breakfast room. The exterior has loads of vintage Craftsman cottage appeal complemented by multiple roof lines, a curated mature garden and a wide front sitting porch, while the interior is a blend of early 20th century architectural details w/thoughtful 21st century additions and conveniences. Original details include hardwood floors, a box beam DR ceiling, Douglas fir door and window trim, built-in bookcases, a china cabinet/sideboard and an impressive brick/stone fireplace with wood stove insert. The large, remodeled kitchen is a cook's dream, fitted w/granite counters, abundant custom cabinets + kitchen storage. Both the kitchen & primary bedroom have sliding doors that open to a spacious backyard deck for entertaining or relaxing. Located just 2 blocks to Lincoln Park/pool and the San Leandro Bay shoreline, the home is close to Encinal Market, Edison Elementary & Lincoln Middle schools. A wonderful home in a sought-after Alameda neighborhood!
