3233 SAN JOSE AVENUE

Enjoy the best of Alameda's East End, in this 2+BD/1BA bungalow on a quiet street with shoreline trails, parks, boating, a public swimming pool, and tennis courts only blocks away. Built in 1938, windows galore stream sunshine into the 1151 SQFT home that lives large with additional bonus spaces built out of the basement areas. A landscaped front yard and neighborly porch welcome you inside the home's bright and inviting living room. The fireplace is framed by a mantle with period woodwork and picture windows display garden views, making the room a great place to relax with family and friends. Beautiful plank hardwood floors span into the dining room for great flow and easy entertaining. The room features a staircase with decorative woodwork and a wrought iron handrail leading to the bedrooms. Tucked away for privacy on their own floor, both sunny bedrooms offer hardwood floors and walk-in custom closets and the updated hall bathroom has a shower above the tub. The kitchen adjoins the dining room, featuring a new Bosch fridge, vintage tiling, and a lovely breakfast nook with built-in shelves. Sip your morning coffee with a peaceful view of the backyard, or step through the backdoor where you can dine al fresco on the patio, surrounded by lush mature landscaping. The backyard includes a large storage shed. From the kitchen, you can also access the lower level of the home where the spacious laundry area offers great flexible space for an office, studio, or playroom, and the renovated garage area provides more flexible bonus square footage perfect for a den, family room, or home gym. Both areas have been upgraded with new lighting and hardwood floors. Out your front door, you'll find sought-after schools (elementary and middle school are each a few blocks away), Encinal Market for grocery shopping alongside a local cafe, restaurant, and new bakery, while Park Street’s downtown and Southshore Center are a few minutes away. Stroll to waterfront trails, Lincoln Park, or the Transbay bus stop just down the street for a convenient commute. Additional updates include newer windows (2022), new interior paint, and sewer lateral in compliance!
