A Classic Mid-Century Gem in Alameda’s Coveted East End
This East End classic, a 1961 Mid-Century Modern home in Alameda’s desirable Eastshore neighborhood, perfectly blends timeless character with the comfort and flexibility today’s lifestyle demands. Thoughtfully refreshed with newly refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint, new carpet, and modern lighting, it offers a bright, open feel throughout its generous 2,376± square feet of living space.
Step through the gracious covered entry into a welcoming foyer with vaulted ceilings that immediately set the tone for this light-filled home. The expansive living room features a beautiful fireplace and large windows that invite natural light to flow through, creating a relaxed and elegant space for entertaining or unwinding at the end of the day. The formal dining room connects seamlessly to an adjoining office and a large eat-in kitchen outfitted with a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Thermador double oven, quality cabinetry, and generous counter space — perfect for home chefs and casual family meals alike.
Just beyond, the step-down den expands the home’s versatile living area — an inviting space that opens directly to the private backyard and patio, ideal for gatherings, outdoor dining, or simply enjoying Alameda’s gentle bay breezes. A convenient half bath is located adjacent to the den, offering additional functionality for guests and everyday living.
Upstairs, the primary suite provides a peaceful retreat with generous closet space, a lovely bathroom, and partial water views that catch the light of the afternoon sun. Three additional bedrooms — one also with partial water views — and a well-appointed full bathroom with a shower-over-tub offer room for everyone to spread out in comfort.
Interior access to the two-car garage adds everyday ease, with laundry connections, extra storage, and direct entry to the main living areas.
Set on a lovely street in the highly sought-after Eastshore neighborhood, this spacious home enjoys close proximity to Otis Elementary, Lincoln Middle School, and several neighborhood parks. The water, local cafés, and shops of the Encinal Shopping Center are all nearby, while access to major freeways, Oakland International Airport, and the San Francisco Ferry makes commuting or weekend getaways effortless.
Built in 1961, this beautifully maintained Mid-Century Modern home offers enduring design, a prime location, and room to grow — ready for its next chapter in Alameda’s beloved East End.
