2612 Lincoln Avenue, Alameda

On a peaceful street in Alameda’s Fernside neighborhood, steps from the coveted Edison and Lincoln Schools, 2612 Lincoln is a light-filled 2BD/1BA, 1296 sq ft Craftsman Bungalow. Built in 1922, and a splendid example of Alameda’s Craftsman architectural style, the home retains all of the vintage charm, nicely balanced by modern upgrades. Gleaming hardwood floors, high coved ceilings, polished wainscoting and plate rails, and period built-ins add character, while the expansive updated kitchen with stone countertops and greenhouse window and convenient laundry area align with a contemporary lifestyle. Two sunny bedrooms with substantial closets share a remodeled bath with shower over tub. The home includes a traditional brick-clad front porch overlooking the neighborhood, an enclosed rear yard with space for summer barbecues, a detached garage, and a basement for storage or a potential workshop. Ideally located, the home is moments from bustling Park Street shops and restaurants, as well as beaches, cafes, and parks. For commuters, the home is also near the SF ferry and other public transportation options including the Transbay bus lines to Oakland and San Francisco.
