815 Grand St, Alameda


3,166 square foot 5 bedroom 2 bath Gold Coast Queen Anne Victorian built in 1890. Cost to build was $5,193. Currently valued at about $2 million.

"One of the most outstanding houses to be built in Alameda during the year 1890....Its original owner, Louis H. Jacobi made an astute decision in selecting the architect Charles S. Shaner to design it, as he created an exterior and interior of unparalleled elegance." (Documentation of Victorian and Post Victorian Residential and Commercial Buildings City of Alameda 1854 to 1904)

A quick permit check did not reveal any major renovations. A relief after yesterday's trauma....If you missed it start HERE
