Charming East End Craftsman w/Detached Studio Close to Parks + Top Schools

LISTED AT $1,095,000

Built in 1925 and thoughtfully updated by the present owners, this lovely Craftsman home has vintage charm to spare both inside and out! Located in Alameda’s desirable East End just two blocks to Otis Elementary School and Krusi Park, this charming home features three bedrooms, two bathrooms, traditional living and dining rooms, a remodeled chef’s kitchen, a detached office/bonus space, and an outdoor kitchen installation with a spacious patio. A professional landscape, courtesy of local landscape designer Mary Fisher, includes lemon, avocado and lime trees blended with colorful, drought-resistant plantings, and intricate garden sculptures complementing the home’s Mediterranean style, giving the home wonderful curb appeal while requiring minimal upkeep.

Inside, the traditional living and dining rooms retain many original details including a handsome oak floor, crown moulding, and a stone and brick fireplace with classic Craftsman features. Tall, arched picture windows in the living room provide plenty of natural light and pleasing views of the garden, while windows on either side of a built-in, Craftsman-style bookcase bring bright light into the dining room. The kitchen, open to the dining room, was thoughtfully remodeled with a cook’s needs in mind. The large kitchen has plenty of cabinets, drawers and granite counters for storage and food prep, as well as a striking, stacked stone backsplash in variegated colors that’s as durable as it is beautiful. Wolf, JennAir and Miele appliances provide additional luxurious touches to this impressive kitchen.

Typical of many vintage Craftsman period homes, two bedrooms are situated adjacent to the dining room on either side of a hallway bathroom with a tub/shower combination. Both rooms have a vintage oak floor, crown moulding, ample natural light, and are each spacious enough to be used as a primary bedroom. The home’s third bedroom is located behind the kitchen for privacy, and has an ensuite full bathroom and views of the backyard garden.

Special features of this gracious home include an outdoor kitchen with a built-in grill, a smoker, all-weather kitchen storage, and everything required for outdoor cooking and entertaining in a sophisticated setting. The original detached garage has been tastefully finished and converted into a bonus space, ideal for a home office, gym or studio. Sliding doors open to the backyard kitchen and patio, providing bright, natural light and easy indoor/outdoor access.

2906 Washington Street has it all–a lovely vintage home updated for a contemporary lifestyle in a highly sought-after East End location close to Encinal Market, Lincoln Park, the South Shore Center and the shoreline. With easy access to downtown Park Street, the SF Ferry, Oakland Airport and freeways, this is Alameda at its very best!
