1504 Verdi Street — Where Classic Architecture Meets Modern Ease

A home is more than just a property — it’s a place where ideas flourish, memories are cherished, and dreams take form. 1504 Verdi Street is exactly that kind of home.

This 1917 Craftsman has been lovingly restored over the past 13 years by owners who have built a life here filled with breadmaking, beer brewing, and memorable parties with friends. It is a home full of style, creativity, and the happy energy of the life lived within its walls.

Recipient of an Alameda Architectural Preservation Society Award in 2021, this four-bedroom, two-bath home blends architectural heritage with curated, contemporary finishes while retaining the character and original details that define the style. A large door greets visitors with a speakeasy-style knocker featuring heraldic rampant lions, setting the tone for whimsy from the very first step inside.

Thoughtfully designed built-ins enhance the home’s character, including bookcases flanking the fireplace, a vintage buffet in the dining room, and distinctive built-in dividers between the living and dining rooms. There’s even a special space for your bar, library, or to display your Lego collection.

Modern conveniences round out the charm: solar panels, upgraded electrical, HVAC, and plumbing systems, new bathrooms, a chef’s kitchen, and an electric car charger.

Outside, the property offers fruit trees, low-maintenance landscaping, and a fabulous party-ready backyard, along with a versatile studio and workshop—formerly home to Noble Garage Brewing Company—complete with water, electric, and plenty of built-in storage. It’s all just a half mile from the shops and restaurants of Webster Street, with quick access to the tunnel, I-880, and ferries to San Francisco.
