Built in 1891, this historic Thomas Pyne residence is a remarkable example of Queen Anne Victorian architecture, showcasing extraordinary period craftsmanship and detail throughout. The striking front portico welcomes you with intricate gold-leaf woodwork, dentil molding, and grand double entry doors opening into an impressive foyer. The grand faceted tower is textbook Queen Anne style. Step inside and discover a home rich with architectural character, including Lincrusta wallcoverings, Bradbury & Bradbury-style wallpaper, stained glass and painted glass, beautiful caramel stained wood floors, elegant chandeliers, and classic picture-rail moldings. The expansive main level features a gracious living room combining two parlor rooms with decorative fireplace, formal dining room, kitchen, solarium, office, laundry area, and full bathroom. The kitchen has a commercial grade gas Wolf stove top, corner and island seating perfect for congregating around the chef. The office is counted as one of the six bedrooms while the solarium shines with tall hatch windows, brass light fixtures, coffered ceilings and skylights. Upstairs are four bedrooms and two bathrooms, with an additional spacious primary suite with an ensuite bathroom and exceptional closet space. A large attic, accessed through a closet hatch, provides additional storage and possibilities. The enormous full basement adds another dimension to the property, offering a workshop, butler's kitchen, multiple storage rooms, and an impressive library that may once have been a ballroom to entertain the political gathering of yesteryear. County records identify the residence as a six-bedroom, three-bath home encompassing more than 4,100 square feet on an approximately 10,000-square-foot lot. Completing this exceptional property is a converted carriage house at the rear, currently used as an ADU that has a full kitchen and living room downstairs and a full bedroom and bathroom upstairs. The backyard has an enormous amount of storage, artificial turf, majestic oak tree and an English garden that could be transformed into a garage, pool area or 18 hold putting green! With its grand proportions, extraordinary period details, and distinctive architectural heritage, this is a rare opportunity to own one of Alameda's truly memorable Victorian residences. Broker tour 9/1 from 11am-1pm. Friday twilight open from 5p-7pm and open house Sat and Sun from 2pm-4pm.
