Fernside

Nestled in the heart of Alameda’s coveted Fernside neighborhood, this elegant 1928 Spanish Revival home is on the market for the very first time. Surrounded by tree-lined streets and classic architecture, it exudes the charm and character that make Fernside so desirable.

Lovingly refreshed while retaining its original grace, the home features 2 generously sized bedrooms and 1 well-appointed bathroom across an expansive 1,767 square feet. Step inside to find a spacious formal living room bathed in natural light, a stately dining room perfect for entertaining, and an oversized kitchen with room to create your culinary vision.

Throughout the home, you’ll find distinctive stained glass windows—said to have been designed by the original homeowner—that lend an artistic, personal touch and further elevate the home’s old-world elegance. From arched doorways to intricate moldings, this home is rich with timeless details.

Enjoy the convenience of being only blocks away from top-rated public schools, Lincoln Park, and just minutes to Encinal Market, Nob Hill Foods, Alameda Beach, downtown Park St, and South Shore Center amenities. With easy access to OAK, SF ferries, freeways, and BART, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Alameda history and make it your own.

about this

Neighborhood

The Fernside District of Alameda is part of the East End, near the foot of the High Street Bridge, and is coveted for its charming tree-lined streets, iconic Tudor and Spanish style architecture, and its surrounding high-performing schools. Fernside is also known for its “starter” Split Level homes of the 1920s-1940s, Queen Anne Victorians, Transitional Colonial Revivals, and Craftsman Bungalows.

Fernside was the last major tract of land on the main island subdivided east of Grand Street, and formerly the 65-acre Cohen estate. It remained an orchard and horse pasture until the late 1920s when the heirs put it on the market after several years of careful planning. This development brought to an end the open, park-like atmosphere that once characterized all of Alameda.
