About This Home
As of May 2025Tucked away on a peaceful street in Alameda’s desirable South Shore nighborhood, 1244 Rosewood Way offers the perfect blend of classic mid-century style and unbeatable location. Built in 1963, this single-level 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home sits on a spacious lot with a large, flat backyard—ideal for summer gatherings, playtime, or a future garden oasis. Inside, you’ll find vaulted ceilings and a functional layout that flow effortlessly from room to room. The quiet, yet convient neighborhood offers easy access to Alameda’s top-rated schools, the beach, public transportation, South Shore shopping, local dining, and scenic Crab Cove. This is a rare off-market opportunity, as the sellers have already purchased their next home but won’t be ready to move until June—perfect for buyers who are flexible on timing and looking to avoid the competitive spring market. Join us for an exclusive Open House hosted by The Andrea Ruport Team on Wednesday, April 24th from 4–7 PM — a special opportunity for clients and agents to preview this charming home before it hits the broader market.
