    What's special

    Gorgeous light-filled East End Craftsman Bungalow located right in the middle of Alameda's famed "Bungalow Row."  This architecturally rich home is a true showpiece of the Craftsman Bungalow era.  The arts & crafts style address plaque greets you as you walk up on to the oversized covered front porch, complete with a cozy porch swing perfect for relaxing on a lovely summer day.  The large front door with a leaded glass window opens into the living room, which features gumwood wainscoting and built-in bookshelves with leaded glass doors surrounding the gas-burning fireplace.  Gumwood wainscoting, plate rails, picture rails and built-ins all grace the dining room with views out to the Meyer lemon tree, lawn, fountain and raised vegetable gardens in the oversized side yard.  The updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, shaker style cabinetry and warm colored granite countertops also has a built-in breakfast nook with cushioned seating and a perfect view out to the backyard patio area where the pond, hammock and outdoor fireplace await.  The large picture windows in the living room, dining room and front bedroom have all been replaced with dual pane wood windows with divided light panes, a true reflection of the Craftsman style.  In fact, many of the homes on this block have upgraded their windows to architecturally rich designs as well, adding to the overall appeal of the neighborhood.  The newly refinished hardwood floors run throughout the home, with the exception of the bathroom and kitchen, both of which have warm, rich tile flooring.  The bedrooms both have large windows allowing the sunlight to fill the rooms and also allowing for a cool breeze when needed.  Both bedrooms have closet organizing systems in addition to the large linen closet located in the hallway.  The updated bathroom also has a large linen closet with finishes similar to the kitchen, adding to the seamless design and visual flow throughout the spaces of the home.   Visit www.3259Sterling.com for more photos and info.
