Originally built in 1920 on Alameda's Bay Farm Island in the early days of its development, what was once a sweet, traditional cottage now includes a roomy addition that features a family room, kitchenette, large bedroom and bathroom. Constructed in the 1980s, the addition has its own private entrance and driveway, and is a perfect space for extended family, guests, or an au pair. The original home features 2BR, 1BA, a formal LR with a fireplace, and an open dining room/kitchen that is newly remodeled with quartz counters and new appliances. The front and back yards are beautifully landscaped, and a large redwood deck accessed from the dining room offers plenty of room to entertain. A detached garage has plenty of storage space. Take advantage of Bay Farm's highly rated schools! Close to Safeway, Godfrey Park, the shoreline and Oakland Airport, with easy access to the SF Ferry, AC Transit OX bus & freeways. Pride of ownership is evident everywhere in this lovely home.
