Two private garages with automatic openers convey with this home - genuinely uncommon on Alameda's East End, and useful for far more than parking. Workshop, gym, studio, or room for everything that never fits in a condo. Unit J lives like a townhouse, not a flat. Two levels, its own entry, and no one above or below you - the two things people most wish they could change about condo living, already solved. It sits in a gated garden complex of just ten homes. The main level opens into a light-filled living and dining space with vinyl plank flooring, recessed lighting, and shutters. An updated kitchen with ample cabinetry anchors one end, and a half bath keeps guests off the stairs. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms with generous closets share a full bath. One bedroom opens to its own exterior door on the walkway - original to the building's design, and a feature almost nothing else here offers. That second private entry works beautifully for a roommate, visiting family, or a home office. The meaningful work is already done. Flooring, lighting, and kitchen are behind you, leaving only the finishing touches to make it yours. HOA covers water, sewer, garbage, and exterior maintenance, with shared laundry in the building. And the location is the part you cannot replicate: blocks from Park Street's shops, cafes, restaurants, historic theater and marketplace, with a longtime German restaurant right next door. Quick access to 880 and Fruitvale BART. Homes in this building rarely come available. Worth seeing.
