About this home

Step into a piece of Alameda’s history with this charming stand-alone cottage, built in 1912 by the acclaimed architects Rousseau & Rousseau. Nestled just steps from the Bay, this sweet home offers the perfect balance of timeless character and modern versatility. Inside, the light-filled layout features one bedroom and one bath, an open living and kitchen space, and a large attic that invites endless possibilities. The private yard, complete with a mature Meyer lemon tree, creates a serene outdoor retreat where you can savor the Bay breeze in peace. This cottage is more than just a home—it’s an opportunity. Operated successfully as both a Superhost Airbnb and through Furnish Finder, it has proven potential as a source of short- and long-term rental income. Equally suited as a personal sanctuary, guest house, or smart investment, the property also carries the advantage of attractive tax benefits through depreciation and expense deductions. Set at the end of a quiet row of four
