Central Alameda
Step into this expansive Victorian Leonard home, a rare piece of Alameda’s history, offering 2,146 sq. ft. of living space on a 5,400 sq. ft. lot. Built with the craftsmanship and character that define Leonard homes, this property showcases gorgeous hardwood floors, vintage light fixtures, and exquisite built-ins that have stood the test of time.
On the main level, you’ll find a spacious living room, a library with a stately fireplace and custom built-ins, a formal dining room, and a kitchen overlooking the backyard, plus a half bath for convenience. Ascend the dramatic wood staircase to the second level, where four generously sized bedrooms and a full bath await.
The basement offers incredible versatility with multiple rooms—one of which was previously an office—alongside a laundry area, workshop, and the makings of another full bathroom.
Outside, the beautifully landscaped backyard features pavers, a majestic oak tree, and a detached two-car garage, while the long driveway provides ample off-street parking.
Centrally located in Alameda, this is an extraordinary opportunity for buyers, investors, or contractors to own a home with historical significance and timeless appeal. Whether restoring its vintage charm or modernizing it with a personal touch, this Leonard home is ready for its next chapter.
