This home has a lovely Alameda history. It has been in the same family since 1948. The owner was a firefighter for the City. He and his firefighter buddies built this home! As was custom in those days, the firefighters got together and helped their mates build homes! It was completed in 1952. After all these years, the heirs are selling their lovely family home and taking wonderful memories with them. This is a one level, spacious home, with an open space concept, encompassing the living and dining areas -- extremely far thinking in those days. As you go forward in the home you have easy access to the 3 bedrooms, 1-1/2 baths, a spacious 'eat-in' kitchen, and plenty of storage. The backyard (yes, needs attention!) but it's private! In addition there is a convenient and functional wood storage shed. The home's location is perfect. Cross Fernside to walk near the water, or a quick trip to Southshore. Close to award-winning schools.
