Welcome to 1808 Santa Clara Ave.
This charming Craftsman home with a large, deep lot presents a beneficial opportunity to the perceptive buyer. Conveniently located in Central Alameda. 1808 Santa Clara Avenue is an appealing two bedroom, one bath home with abundant Craftsman features.
Entering the spacious formal living room you will note its beautiful hardwood flooring, an original stone fireplace flanked by two built-in handcrafted storage benches, and the full length front windows flooding the room with light. Double French doors lead to the spacious formal dining room which provides ample room for entertaining.
Due to the property's former business use, the kitchen awaits your personal touch in remodeling to your taste. The adjacent breakfast nook can also function as a home workspace.
There is also a laundry nook with more storage space off the kitchen.
The upper level features two bedrooms, with the larger one having
a bonus plus space which is separated by French doors.
The updated remodeled bathroom features a tiled shower over tub and a newer sink and newer fixtures.
Situated on a 6930 square foot lot, with a fully cemented rear area, there is space for parking multiple vehicles and the possible opportunity of an addition of an ADU. The yard is accessed by a pass-through garage which provides access to the basement area and additional storage space.
An added plus is the detached structure, set back on the lot, ideal for use as a hobby space, personal art studio, yoga room, or a bonus storage area.
Located just four blocks from the vibrant Park Street shopping and dining district, and directly on the AC Transit line, allowing convenient connection to BART and the trans-bay bus service. South Shore Shopping Center and Alameda's beach and shoreline are nearby.

Neighborhood
Alameda began as a peninsula just south of Oakland and is now an East Bay island with a laid-back feeling all its own. You will find a variety of homes and condos for sale in Alameda including cozy apartments, spacious single family homes that have been fully renovated, and gorgeous luxury mansions where no expense was spared. With more than 10,000 buildings constructed before 1930, there is a rich and varied architectural heritage in the area playing a role in Alameda's real estate market conditions. Historic Queen Anne's, more than 1,500 ornately decorated Victorians, and California Craftsmans are some of the most desirable homes here along its tree-lined streets.
When locals want to explore the various shopping, landmarks, museums, and dining, they usually head to Park Street. You may want to start your day with a visit to the Alameda Museum. Since 1948, the museum has preserved the rich history of this unique island city and offers both locals and tourists an opportunity to learn more about the great island of Alameda.
Civic pride runs high in Alameda, and many of the city’s older buildings have been fully restored or repurposed. The Alameda Theater on Park Street was restored to its art deco glory, while the Alameda Free Library was transformed from the Carnegie Library into a multimillion-dollar showplace that earned a Silver LEED certification. Alameda is also a great place for outdoor activities. The Robert W. Crown Memorial State Beach is the perfect place for wind-surfing and taking a morning run near the beach.
Alameda is a great place to live if you love a vibrant atmosphere with plenty of festivals and activities to enjoy. Popular events and festivals in Downtown include a Spring Festival in May and a Classic Car Show in October. No matter the time of year, there is always something fun happening in Alameda.
