This beautifully renovated 3-bedroom, 1-bath bungalow offers an inviting single-level floor plan, generous outdoor space, and a flexible bonus area ideal for a home office, media room, playroom, or creative studio. A covered front porch opens to a light-filled living room where graceful arched openings, warm wood flooring, decorative ceiling details, and a striking tiled fireplace create an immediate sense of charm. The open connection to the dining room makes entertaining effortless, while an original-style built-in buffet with glass-front cabinetry provides display space, storage, and a memorable architectural focal point. The fully updated kitchen pairs modern function with understated style, featuring light wood cabinetry, sleek black hardware, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, microwave, dishwasher, generous workspace, and abundant natural light. Just beyond, the flexible secondary living area offers valuable separation for working from home, relaxing, hosting guests, or pursuing creative interests.

A detached storage structure adds everyday utility, while the long driveway provides valuable off-street parking.

3 Beds ⋅ 3 Baths ⋅ 41149521 MLS
3315 Central Ave is a rare East End compound with the space, separation, and flexibility that almost never come together in one Alameda property. Behind its classic street presence sits a true two-home setup: a 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath split-level main residence, a detached 1-bedroom, 1-bath rear home, a private courtyard, garage, and additional flexible space in both homes. The main residence is defined by warmth and architectural character, with hardwood floors, exposed-beam ceilings, a brick fireplace, and light-filled living and dining rooms that flow naturally from one to the next. The detached rear home is where this property becomes something more. It gives extended family their own space. It gives guests privacy. It gives you the freedom to create a private office, studio, gym, retreat, or a place to decompress at the end of the day. Both homes also offer separate utility space, giving this compound a level of everyday functionality that is rare in the East End. Room for the gear, the work, the hobbies, the family, and the life that does not fit neatly inside a typical floor plan. Set in Alameda’s coveted East End, wander its tree-lined streets, grab coffee or dinner on Park Street, and take in the shoreline just minutes from your door. Ferry access, freeways, BART, AC Transit, and Oakland International keep the entire Bay Area within easy reach. Not just two homes on one lot. A complete East End compound, built around how you want to live.
