Sweet West End 1945 Bungalow + Garage or Workshop w/ADU Potential on Large Lot

Built in 1945, this sweet 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom bungalow is located in a charming West End neighborhood filled with vintage homes from the same era. Situated on a tree-lined street on a large lot, the home has received extensive updates inside, and new and refreshed landscaping outside! A 563-square-foot detached garage in the spacious backyard has wonderful ADU potential, or can be used now for a home office, exercise space, studio/workshop or storage. The large yard offers a sizable grassy area for play as well as hardscaping for dining and lounging spaces and an extra long driveway for ample parking!

West End Alameda developed quickly during and just after World War II in order to provide housing for the many workers and their families who built ships at the Alameda Works Shipyard, one of the largest and best equipped shipyards in the country at the time. 110 Santa Clara Ave was most likely one of the many houses built for these war-time ship builders to live within close proximity of work. Today the home retains the original open floor plan that includes a living room/dining room with wood laminate floors, and a fireplace with the 1940s mantel and a hearth and surround updated with an elegant herringbone tile pattern.

The cheerful kitchen has walnut toned counters, stainless steel appliances and updated cabinet hardware on wood cabinetry, plus a pantry, all accented by a stylish black and white tile backsplash and low maintenance vinyl flooring. The home's freshly painted bedrooms are situated to the left of the front entrance, and have wood laminate floors and multiple large windows for bright, natural light. A hallway bathroom has a shower/tub combination, and has been updated with a newer vanity, hex-tile floor and fixtures.

This vibrant West End location is just a 3-minute drive to the Main St and Seaplane Lagoon ferries to San Francisco, and close to Alameda Point parks and attractions. The home offers easy access to downtown Webster St, the Farmers' Market, Spirits Alley, College of Alameda, and the stores/dining at Alameda Landing, Washington Park and Crown Beach. The Webster/Posey Tube is just minutes away, providing convenient access to downtown Oakland and multiple freeways. Must see!
