A Bayview Retreat. Shade trees out back. The bay down the street. That’s Bayview. At 2705 Bayview Drive, the backyard is where life happens. Walls of glass open from the living room, and the primary bedroom onto a private paver terrace, framed by mature trees and fragrant citrus. Long dinners. Slow Sunday mornings. Quiet evenings under the canopy. This is outdoor living, done right. Inside, everything lives on one level. The home is calm and light-filled, with warm hardwood throughout and a classic brick fireplace anchoring the living room. Two bedrooms. Two baths. A flexible den for work or creative pursuits. The kitchen is crisp and bright, with granite counters, stainless appliances, and a sun-filled breakfast nook. Brass accents and refined lighting add polish at every turn. At the center of it all is a private open-air courtyard, with glass on three sides, sky overhead, and a quiet place to start the day. A two-car garage with a workbench rounds out the home, ready for bikes, boards, and weekend projects. Then there’s the setting. Alameda’s shoreline is just moments away, with its beaches, waterfront trails, and wide Bay views. South Shore covers the everyday. Park Street delivers the evenings: local restaurants, neighborhood favorites, and the charm Alameda is known for. A morning walk along the water. An afternoon at South Shore. Dinner on Park Street. When the city calls, the ferry to San Francisco, BART, AC Transit, and Oakland International Airport are all within easy reach. Single-level ease. A private retreat at home. The best of the island at your door. 2705 Bayview Drive. Island living, elevated.
