Adams Point Craftsman Home with Potential
This big, classic home is a big project but has lots of potential to be spectacular again. It has lots of original detail, nice living spaces, lots of bedrooms, amazing possibilities. This home was originally built for the Lemos family, a family of artists, engravers and shoemakers in the early 1900's.
Â
Originally built in 1910, lots of the original features sill exist and could be restored to their original state. The exterior details include a flared gable roof, full width porch with glass panel walls at both ends, square tapered columns, and a flared skirt at the water table. The detailing in the rafter tails and the double-lined shingle cladding are also signs of a well-designed home.
The interior details include inlaid hardwood floors, box beam ceilings, leaded glass windows and multi-paned windows in most rooms. The main floor unit has the original double parlor, kitchen, 1 bath and 2 bedrooms. The 2nd unit on the main floor has a living room, bed and bath also. Upstairs has 3 bedrooms, 1 bath and an open living area.
The area is a walker's paradise, you are just around the corner from Lake Merritt, the Grand Av. and Lakeshore districts and the wonderful Saturday Farmer's Market on Grand Av. You'll find that you can go to many wonderful cafes and restaurants from here, you can go see a movie at the Grand Lake Theater, go for a gondola ride on Lake Merritt, it's a wonderful location. The Walkscore is 89, Bikescore is 87!
