Exquisite Queen Anne Victorian

1126 Union Street Alameda, California
Offered at $799,000
This beautiful five bedroom, two and one-half bath Queen Anne Victorian is a sight to behold!
Located at the edge of Alameda's Gold Coast, this distinctive property is a pleasing blend of fabulous updates and original charm. Built in 1895 (per public records) by A.W. Pattiani & Company, it features gorgeous oak hardwood floors, attractive period light fixtures and chandeliers, striking crown molding, picture rail molding, and window molding.
Guests are welcomed through an attractive custom designed stain glass-accented front door and are immediately drawn into its splendor. The grand stairway radiates charm from its stunning stained glass window to its gleaming wood stairs and white railing, which leads to the upper level to the four bedrooms and one full bath.
The formal living room, with an abundance of natural light, leads to the dining room with an elaborate decorative fireplace and mantel. The bright & airy eat in kitchen has been tastefully updated with a stainless stove & refrigerator, Bosche dishwasher and features stone-tiled counters. An exterior walk-in pantry is located just off the kitchen. A delightful half bath completes the main level.
Its highly desirable permitted finished full basement includes the fifth bedroom, an updated full bath, a spacious family room, and additional storage space. Other upgrades include a newer concrete-bolted foundation, updated house electrical (200 amp service), newer 50 gallon water heater and furnace, updated copper plumbing (in approximately 90% of the home), customer-designed wrought iron fencing and exterior and interior custom painting and color palette.
An attached garage (wired for 220 amp electrical service), driveway, a private back yard with a tool shed (stocked with earthquake survival kit) and automatic sprinkler systems in the front, side, and back yards add to the desirability of this fine home.
