Enjoy the beauty of living in this majestic 4 bedroom Alameda Queen Anne in a park-like setting. This freshly painted, light-filled home of approximately 3,000 square feet sits on a large 7,500+ sq. ft. lot. The valuable and rare lower 3-bedroom 1-bath unit of approximately 1,252 square feet has a private entrance and courtyard.

The main floor, with an impressive high ceiling and pocket doors, highlights elaborate gingerbread, brackets, corbels, rosettes, Cherubs and embellished doorways. The home has a welcoming, formal entry, a living room and a sought-after family room. Just off the kitchen, the dining room lends itself to everyday use. There is a convenient half-bath off the hallway.

The remarkable, modern kitchen echoes the architecture of the original home. Designed to be multi-purpose, it is equipped with five workstations: food prep, baking, flower arranging, a buffet area and a coffee station. Complete with walk-in pantry and a laundry room. Amenities include a 6-burner Thermador gas cooktop with a pot filler, built-in GE oven, dishwasher, large capacity GE refrigerator, and a center island with an under-counter beverage refrigerator and trash compactor. Picture windows offer an expansive view of the backyard.  

 The second floor has 4 bedrooms (one a primary suite with a walk-in closet) and a beautifully remodeled bathroom with a walk-in shower and a separate claw foot soaking tub.

 Additionally, the flexible bonus attic space of approximately 660 sq ft. can be used for guests, games, workouts, and hobbies.

 The lush lawns are surrounded by classic terra-cotta tile. A wide driveway provides space for RV parking and there are more than 5 off street spaces. Additionally, there is a large workshop at the rear.

The home is close to the thriving waterfront area, bike and walking trails, the Grand Street public boat launch, Mosley’s Café, and the marina. It’s just a few blocks to thriving Park Street shopping and restaurants.
