阿拉米达 · 整套民居 · 3室3床2.0卫 · 可住5人 · Charming Craftsman Bungalow
Charming Craftsman Bungalow built in 1916 with original hardwood floors, ceiling beams, and classic front door. Located in a safe, quiet, walkable neighborhood. Relax with a glass of wine by the fireplace or on the private patio. Features a remote workplace option. Owned by the host family for over 65 years and treated with TLC throughout the years. The house was purchased in 1957 by a young couple. They moved in with their two toddlers, my older brother and me. At that time, the house included 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. It was the couple's first home, and their only home, for over 65 years. As their family grew, the house grew with the addition of a second bathroom, the conversion of a small den into a bedroom and the addition of a basement and 2 car garage. My dad did most of the construction himself and the original Craftsman built in 1916 morphed through 6 decades of renovations and decor from midcentury to the eclectic feel it has today. Recently, we decided to restore some Craftsman style detail in the home. My younger brother is the artisan who did the work. The board and batten in the dining room and the 5 panel doors and trim throughout the home are part of his restoration project. As the house matured, so did we. Many birthdays, holidays, family dinners and tons of milestones were celebrated at this address. Little did that young couple, so many years ago, ever predict that memories would continue to be made in their home, not only by family but by guests who came to visit.
The house is very spacious, plenty of room for our family of three. It had a lot of amenities and a well stocked kitchen. Plenty of cups, plates, etc. The bedrooms and bathrooms were comfortable. The house was spotless and tastefully decorated. The off street parking was a bonus because there weren’t many spaces available on street. I would highly recommend this house for a small family. Also, it’s within walking distance of Webster Street and very close to Target, Safeway, In N Out, etc.
Had a wonderful stay. Everything was as described and walkable to restaurants and shops. Would definitely stay again!
Truly a charming and relaxing place for us. After a long flight across the U.S. and arriving late at night - it was such a nice welcome. From the bottle of wine set on the table to the wonderful bed- our stress from the travel disappeared . A wonderful area - the alameda ferry takes you quickly over to San Francisco for less than 8.00 round trip per person We highly recommend this Airbnb home for a stay
Can't say enough wonderful things about this charming house! It's a convenient, quiet, and safe launching point to the cities...or stay local! The house has everything you'll need for a short or extended stay. Oozing with charm. Easily one of our favorite Airbnbs!
Centrally located and within walking distance to Crown Memorial State Beach, Washington Park, Alameda Farmers' Market, coffee shops, restaurants, and shopping. Walk 1.5 blocks to the bus stop for a short ride to San Francisco, just 16 miles from Alameda, or drive 2.2 miles to the ferry terminal and enjoy the view while crossing the bay to San Francisco. Access the historic Alameda Theater, the USS Hornet Smithsonian Exhibit, Jack London Square or several micro breweries and additional restaurants within a 10 minute drive.
Alameda is a small island in the San Francisco Bay. It's about 6 miles long and 3 miles wide. The streets are flat which makes it a haven for bikers and walkers. There are several miles of beaches along the south side of the island with a wide walking/biking path. You can also explore the many neighborhoods featuring Victorian homes built in the late 1800s and early 1900s on foot or bicycle. For those looking to go into San Francisco but don't want to deal with traffic, a transbay bus stop is about one block away. You can also take a ferry to San Francisco. The Alameda ferry terminal is about 2 miles from the house and parking at the terminal is FREE.
自我介绍
I grew up in a very social Italian-American family. We gathered with friends and family almost every weekend for delicious meals and story telling. I'm certain that's where I developed my appreciation for gathering people and hosting parties. When I was 16, we took a 6 week family vacation to Italy and that sparked an interest in traveling. I'm a lot older now and can't wait to pack my bags, hit the road and create the next adventure.
