Alameda BLOG - Homes on Tour worth talking about


it has been some time since i blogged about the homes I saw on the Broker's Tour.  Today was exceptional.  Perhaps because we finally had a sunny day with a slight breeze in Alameda ... absolutely perfect weather.  I toured three homes ... two on Bay Farm Island and one on the main island.  


Becky Cusack's listing at 2529 Washington Way was a delight. Windows everywhere, over 1500 sf and nicely updated. The light in the house was amazing in all of the rooms.  The backyard is cozy but seemed reasonably private. Priced at $949,000 ... a quick note about the street. Washington Way is a small private street lined with several bungalows and no front yards.  This is a classic go play in the street location.  The entrance to the street is tiny and hard to see.  A wonderful little neighborhood.


Maureen Shandobil's latest listing is at 101 Ironwood Rd in the Baywood Townhouse development on Bay Farm Island.  THIS IS A DETACHED home with over 2000 sf, 4 good sized bedrooms, beautifully remodeled kitchen and baths, fabulous floor plan and a wonderful, totally private deck off the Master Bedroom.  There is nothing not to like about this home unless you are set on having a huge yard (in which case I will show some great places in Walnut Creek).  This is priced at $899,000


If you want to be on the lagoon and have the yard to match it then Ringo Liu's listing at 376 Channing is the place to be.  This is a spacious home with some nice amenities, but where you will spend your time is in the backyard with a gently rolling lawn area down to a spacious deck at the water's edge.  Trust me on a day like today, it's barbeque time.  This home is priced at $1,480,000
