Situated in the Garden Isle neighborhood of Alameda’s Bay Farm Island, 1124 Holly is a beautifully remodeled 3+BD/2.5BA townhome with 2004 sq ft of living space and a versatile floorplan with modern updates (a rare “H” model, for those in those in the know). This light-filled home features an open floor plan, vaulted ceiling, family room, open chef’s kitchen, spacious owner’s suite, and three bedrooms on one level. Additional amenities include a bonus room, private patio, laundry room, and 2-car garage with built-in storage and internal access. Near Harrington Park and Corica Park golf course, and moments from Harbor Bay shopping center, the SF Ferry, and the 7-mile Bay Farm Island Loop where residents stroll, run, bike, walk dogs, and sometimes fish along the shore.
The front door of the home opens onto a spacious common area with vaulted ceiling, brick fireplace flanked by sunny windows, a playful wet bar, and a dining area with sliding glass doors out to a private patio.
The open chef’s kitchen has been beautifully remodeled and updated with warm recessed lighting, stone countertops and backsplash, ample drawers and cabinets for storage (including a large pantry), and above-counter cabinets with frosted glass doors. Distinctive pendant lights illuminate a sleek stone-topped kitchen island with dual sink and dishwasher, as well as power outlets for your favorite appliances. A large floor-to-ceiling window fills the room with light, and a sliding glass door provides access to private and spacious patio ideal for a barbecue or relaxing under the stars.
Open to the kitchen is a welcoming family or game room with a door out to the 2-car garage for ease of carrying in groceries and other purchases. To one side is a laundry room with ample shelves for storage. Also on this level is a conveniently placed powder room. At the top of the stairs, an open bonus space would make a wonderful home office, yoga studio, den, or media room. To one side is the spacious owner’s suite. Windows on two sides fill the room with natural light, and dual closets (one a walk-in) and a large linen closet provide abundant storage. The adjoining bath has been updated with stylish sconces over a stone-topped vanity with dual sinks and lots of storage and a walk-in shower with two-tone subway tile with decorative inlays.
The two front bedrooms enjoy huge closets and windows overlooking the street. They share a generous full bath with a wide stone-topped vanity and shower over tub with tile walls with decorative inlays.
Bay Farm Island is a tranquil community with miles of sunny shoreline, with easy access to the south bay and close to the Oakland airport.
