A classic Victorian duplex located in the best part of Alameda. Formerly a single-family home, 1829 Encinal currently houses a rent-producing unit up & vacant unit down, plus additional ADU potential in the detached garage. A myriad of possibilities for the next owner! The home retains turn-of-the-century character - grand rooms, tall windows, ceiling medallions, vintage sconces, hardwood floors & decorative fireplaces - while having undergone phased upgrades over the years. The upper unit consists of a 2-bed, 1-bath flat with deck overlooking the rear courtyard. The lower unit, encompassing two levels, has grand living & dining rooms, a retro-style kitchen w/ refurbished Wedgewood stove, 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths + powder room. Both units have their own laundry. The standalone garage has 1-car parking and two distinct bonus rooms; one above the garage & one behind w/ French doors opening to the lovely garden. A mature citrus tree shades the outdoor space & encourages one to exercise their green thumb. The gated driveway allows for at least two more vehicles to be parked tandem. This corner of Alameda is one of stately homes, tree-lined streets & quaint boutiques. Cafes, corner markets & unique shops are a pleasant stroll away, as are public parks, beaches & bike paths.
