This beautiful Victorian was built by Joseph A. Leonard whose name is synonymous with grand homes in Alameda. The home, located in the Bronze Coast neighborhood of Alameda, was built in 1880 and sits on a large 6600 sq. ft. lot. It has 3 levels, including a finished basement, offering 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Step into the entry foyer w/ stain glass window & wainscoting and feel a welcoming warmth & charm. This home has high ceilings and hardwood floors throughout. Ornate crown molding highlights the pocket doorways into the living/dining area and kitchen and is mirrored in the bookcases in a study/office space. The kitchen has an island as well as a built-in pantry. You can step out of the kitchen onto a deck and a beautiful large backyard and garden area. The foundation was rebuilt to meet earthquake codes in 2004-2005, and the upstairs bathroom was completely remodeled in in 2013. You don’t want to miss out on this amazing opportunity to make this your new home.
