About This Property
A rare West Alameda gem, 1029 Lincoln Avenue pairs timeless island character with beautifully considered updates, an expansive backyard, and exceptional future potential—all just down the street from the charming Bay Station district, where a short stroll leads to fresh coffee, treats, gourmet sandwiches, a neighborhood taqueria, convenient produce and groceries, and much more. Thoughtful modern enhancements complement the home’s original charm. The fully remodeled kitchen features crisp white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, a custom backsplash, and premium Bosch stainless steel appliances. Newer plank flooring flows through the kitchen and both bedrooms. A glass slider opens directly from the kitchen onto the private rear deck, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor connection for morning coffee, al fresco dining, and weekend entertaining. The refreshed bathroom blends modern comfort with classic character. A private driveway and garage provide convenient off-street parking, while the clean basement offers additional space for a workshop, home gym, hobbies, or storage. Newer items, including the roof, water heater, washer, and dryer, add everyday ease. The extraordinary depth of the lot is perhaps the property’s most exciting opportunity. The expansive backyard offers abundant room to garden, entertain, or play, with potential for an ADU—ideal for additional living space, multigenerational use, a private office, or future rental income—all while preserving a generous backyard. The location captures the best of the Alameda lifestyle. Enjoy highly regarded Alameda schools, abundant parks and recreation, Crown Memorial State Beach, waterfront trails, and miles of bike-friendly streets. Webster Street’s shops, cafés, restaurants, and neighborhood favorites are also close at hand, with convenient access to the Transbay Ferry and AC Transit for easy connections to San Francisco and beyond. Beautifully updated, rich in character, and filled with possibilities, 1029 Lincoln Avenue offers a rare combination of lifestyle, location, and room to grow.
