Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was built in 1900 and the listing lacks any mention of recent renovations to major systems (HVAC/Electric), the kitchen, or bathrooms. The reliance on artistic renderings and digitally altered photos suggests the current interior is dated and likely requires cosmetic and functional updates to meet modern standards.
Elementary School: Donald D. Lum Elementary School (9/10). High School: Alameda High School (9/10).
Situated in the heart of Alameda, this property offers exceptional walkability to the vibrant Park Street district, Encinal Nursery, and a wide array of local shops and dining options.
The home features a spacious lower level with multiple functional rooms, providing rare flexibility for a home office, gym, or hobby space that maximizes the utility of the 1,034 square foot footprint.
With a lot size of only 2,310 square feet, the property offers very limited outdoor space, which may be a disadvantage for buyers seeking a large yard or significant privacy.
The disclosure that marketing photos have been digitally altered and may not represent the current condition, combined with the home's 1900 build date, suggests potential deferred maintenance or the need for immediate updates.
