1619 Grand Street, Alameda

This 2BD/1BA 1,223 sq ft split-level home offers renovated spaces, sun-filled rooms, open floor plan, lustrous hardwood floors, LED recessed lighting, detached unit, and a thriving garden oasis. The spacious open floor plan for the living/dining room at 1619 Grand Street creates an inviting atmosphere for entertaining while the bedrooms are tucked away behind a hallway door for privacy. The updated kitchen offers ample counter space and a view of the backyard, as well as a smart laundry nook with washer/dryer hookups – all leading to the centerpiece of this home: the wonderful rear yard. Lush with greenery, blooming Camellia trees, and rows of raised planter boxes, the backyard is a green thumb’s delight. The high fence encourages privacy, while the lattice work allows the sun to stream in and offers a pleasing aesthetic. The detached unit with its rustic wooden panels, French doors on both yard-facing walls, and hardwood floors complements the verdant garden–ideal for a meditation retreat or artist studio. An entire wall of French doors can open completely to let in the beauty of the greenery. The garage connects to a partially finished basement with potential to become a sculpting studio or secluded writing space. The home is near Alameda shops, restaurants, Jean Sweeney/Marina Cove Waterfront parks, and the Posey Tube.
