Sweet Craftsman Bungalow With Lagoon Views Near Park Street + Alameda Beach

LISTED AT $895,000

Situated at the end of a non-thoroughfare street just 3 blocks to downtown Park Street and a stone’s throw to the South Shore Center and Alameda beach and shoreline, this vintage Craftsman has charm and location to spare! Built in 1917, this single-level home offers two bedrooms, one bathroom, an open living/dining room combination, a spacious kitchen with a large breakfast room, a laundry room, a detached garage (390 SF), and views of one of Alameda’s iconic lagoons from the wide, welcoming front porch. A stucco exterior, broad, multiple rooflines and quintessential Craftsman porch columns and pediments all contribute to the home’s classic Craftsman facade, while drought-tolerant landscaping and a driveway for off-street parking contribute to the home’s vintage curb appeal.

The interior boasts a large, open living room/dining room combination filled with natural light from multiple windows on all the exterior walls. Vintage details include a brick fireplace, a crown moulding picture rail, and a handsome oak floor that continues though most rooms in the home. The kitchen and breakfast room is open to the living room/dining room, and has been tastefully updated with granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and plenty of oak cabinets for ample kitchen storage. The breakfast room has elements of a sun porch because of its many windows, and is easily large enough for a home office. A laundry room is located off the kitchen, and has a backdoor that offers access to the pretty backyard patio and detached garage/workshop.

Like most original Craftsman homes, the bedrooms are off the home’s “public” rooms, and this home is no exception. A well-sized bedroom sits adjacent to the living room, connected to the primary bedroom by a full bathroom. Both bedrooms offer an oak floor and plenty of natural light, and the primary bedroom features an original built-in dresser.

812 Oak St offers a wonderful Bronze Coast location just blocks from everything that the South Shore Center has to offer, and only minutes to the many stores and cafes of downtown Park Street. Close to Alameda beach and Krusi, Chochenyo and Scout parks, this convenient location also offers easy access to the SF Ferry, Oakland Airport, freeways, and the commuter buses on Otis Drive. Imagine sitting on the front porch at the end of the day enjoying Bay breezes and the sunset over the lagoon–a little bit of heaven from this sweet Bronze Coast home!
