Remarks

Welcome to this charming house on a quiet, upper westside street. With spacious living areas and a generous 5,358 sq ft lot, the house has a unique and potentially flexible floor plan which now consists of 2 separate, private homes, each with a bedroom, bath and living area. This could be ideal for extended family or as an owners' home with a rental unit. The upstairs home has vaulted ceilings and many windows offering abundant natural light and treetop views across the arroyo. Step out onto the front balcony to catch the glint of sunlight reflected off of the Monterey Bay and, on a clear day, peeks of the Bay through the trees. The kitchen sports vintage tile countertops, a breakfast bar, tons of cabinet space and a skylight. The roomy primary bedroom opens onto a wide deck overlooking the backyard. A walk-in closet and full bath complete the upstairs. The downstairs is a stylish, 1 bedroom, 1 bath residence with a living room and kitchenette. French doors lead out to the yard with plenty of room for gardening.There's a laundry room and attached garage. 229 Alamo Avenue is conveniently close to the Farmers Market, the University of California, hiking and biking trails, restaurants, breweries and shops. Public records show this as a 1 bedroom, 1 bath home with a second unit.
