1401 Cottage St. Unit D is a 2-bed, 2-bath upper-level condo in the heart of Central Alameda. Natural light floods the living space, catching the brick fireplace and mid-century architectural lines as you enter. The private patio off the living room creates a perfect extension of the space for your morning coffee, end-of-day wind-downs, or just a quiet place to read. The home sits within an intimate 12-residence community and includes one off-street parking space plus storage. Your location delivers the ideal balance of calm residential living with access at your fingertips. Both Park Street and Webster Street are close by for dining, coffee, and errands, as well as lounges and lively weekend spots. Franklin Park is two blocks away for swimming, sports, and seasonal programming, and the shoreline sits close enough to make evening walks and weekend beach days a regular routine. With ferry access to Oakland and San Francisco, commuting is seamless. Plug into the city during the day and return to Alameda's quieter coastal pace at night.
