Calling All Swimmers

I normally, do not call out one specific listing unless I find something interesting, and today I thought 3341 Fernside Blvd was worthy of this call out, especially if you are a swimmer.

This $1,295,000 five bedroom, three bathroom home located on the water and has one feature you do not see very often in Alameda, a private pool. Now normally, I would not see a pool as a benefit to a home being sold, because it requires cleaning, maintenance and usually takes up a good portion of the backyard. Since this home is located on the estuary, the pool location is unique and is framed well in yard.

The pool overlooks the estuary and the boat dock to give swimmers a rare look out on to the bay water.

Given the homes location and condition it is a very nice property and a home with a pool is a rare find in Alameda.

The Prudential listing agent's description: A rare personal retreat w/ superb on the water indoor/outdoor living including a pool, spa, & deep water boat dock. Located in the desirable Fernside neighborhood w/ exceptional blend of vintage charm & modern updating including an exquisite chef's kitchen & great room.

I corrected the three spelling errors in the description so it will not read exactly as the online copy. And technically, the home is not located in the Fernside Homeowners Association, but heck it is on Fernside so close enough I guess.

So if have the seven figures to drop on a home it is well worth a look if you like pools.
