In addition to lovely, sunlit rooms, the interior offers vintage charm and details blended with stylish modern updates. The large living room features a 10-foot cathedral ceiling, a fireplace with herringbone-design tiles on the surround and topped with a simple wood mantel, a vintage oak floor and beautiful white plaster walls. A wide, arched doorway leads to a traditional dining room with the original oak floor and a large, divided-lite picture window with built-in casement windows for fresh air and loads of natural light. The kitchen, remodeled in 2017, sits behind the dining room and includes plenty of white, Shaker-style cabinets, gray quartz counters, Thermador appliances, and offers views of the picturesque backyard. A breakfast nook off the kitchen can easily double as a mudroom or sunroom, and offers easy access to the backyard. Downstairs, a sunny level-in bonus space next to the attached garage makes an ideal playroom or home office.
The home’s two bedrooms are situated up an open, split-level staircase originating in the living room. Both rooms are generously sized, offer plenty of natural light, and have stylish ceiling fans with remote controls. A bathroom sits between the bedrooms, and features a vintage mosaic tile floor and a shower over tub combination with retro vintage pale yellow and black tiles on the surround.
1115 Mound Street is Alameda at its very best!

With an exceptional East End location and in move-in-ready condition, this is just the kind of gracious vintage home that draws people to Alameda over and over again.
