Walk into this move-in-ready Stonehenge cottage and you’ll fall in love with the jewel-like leaded glass details in the large windows overlooking the garden. Original light fixtures and hardwood floors throughout the home give the space a warm and inviting ambiance. The living room features a vaulted ceiling and stone fireplace, and the leaded glass windows also highlight the dining room. The upper level includes 2 bedrooms, a full bath with well-preserved vintage tile, and extra storage space; an attached garage completes the home.

The Stonehenge development is one of the first charming Storybook-style home developments in the United States. Located in Central Alameda with great access to AC Transit for easy commutes, Stonehenge is a small village of cottages built nearly a century ago. Enter through the arch at the village’s entrance and you are immersed in a garden courtyard filled with flowering plants, stone benches, bridge, waterfall, pond, and a large circular stone fountain. Surrounding this magical garden paradise are half-timbered two-story homes trimmed in stone and capped with heavy shake roofs, reminiscent of a home in a quiet English village. Stonehenge homes don’t come on the market often; take advantage of the rare opportunity to live in this hidden treasure in the heart of Alameda.
