1416 Broadway, Alameda

Amazing opportunity in the East End to own this circa 1886-1887 Queen Anne by noted architect and builder Charles S Shaner. This stunning Victorian has been thoroughly reimagined to capture today's modern comforts while being considerate of the period details. Upon entering the foyer you are greeted by 11ft ceilings, vintage hardwood floors and original woodworking that highlight the magnificent front staircase. A formal living room connects to a sizable dining room with immense windows that showcase plantings and greenery from every angle. A sitting alcove, parlor room and new half bath decked out with high end wallpaper, sink, faucet and other details round out the front half of the home. Also on the first floor is the long kitchen completely designed with the chef and entertainer in mind. High end appliances, warm wood countertops, island bar seating and eat-in breakfast area make entertaining a breeze. Access to the rear yard and gardens flow seamlessly from the kitchen to outdoors. Adjoining the breakfast area is a comfortable family room with access to the rear internal staircase that affords a private entrance to the sleeping quarters upstairs.

The upper level with its high ceilings and beautiful mouldings, high baseboards and tall windows make each room on this level feel grand. A guest room with a sitting room overlooks the front of home and makes for a beautiful pied a terre for your guests or a spacious bedroom for a family member. A large bathroom with double vanities, spacious walk in shower with exquisite tile and fixtures is also on this level. The primary bedroom overlooks the rear garden and has a unique set up for a home office which adjoins this room. An additional large bedroom, beautiful full bathroom with new clawfoot tub and high end hardware and a laundry room round out the second level of home.

Beyond the interior's inherent beauty, the exterior—with its striking profile and carefully chosen paint colors that accentuate the period Victorian detailing—complements an equally enchanting yard. This outdoor space has been thoughtfully designed to provide a private sanctuary within its urban setting. One is immediately captivated by the lush plantings, mature trees, and unusually expansive lot—a true rarity in Alameda. The yard is fully fenced and gated, ensuring complete privacy, while the driveway provides convenient two-car tandem off-street parking. A vintage garage completes the picture, offering the perfect space for a maker's room, craft studio, or storage for bicycles and recreational equipment.

This prime location, just a few blocks from vibrant Park Street, puts you in the heart of Alameda's eclectic mix of restaurants, cafes, and boutiques. Enjoy unparalleled convenience with grocery stores and entertainment all within easy walking distance. Top-rated K-12 schools including the highly sought-after Edison Elementary School are also nearby, as are convenient bus lines and the SF/Oakland Ferry. This desirable East End neighborhood offers easy access to Encinal Market and other shops, Lincoln and Krusi Parks, the Lincoln pool, Alameda Beach, South Shore Center businesses, Trader Joe's, and all the amenities of downtown Park Street.
