Opportunities like this are few and far between! 196 Crest Avenue offers almost 1 acre in one of Alamo's most desirable locations-perfect for an urban farm or private multi-home compound Properties with this of size, setting, and flexibility are increasingly rare in the area. The main residence features 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths, with a flexible layout ideal for modern living. An attached pool/guest suite with a private bath and a detached bedroom with exterior access add even more versatility. Outdoor spaces are equally impressive, with mature trees, a sparkling pool, and an expansive yard that backs to the Iron Horse Trail-offering potential direct access to one of the East Bay's most beloved recreational pathways. Located just minutes from top-rated schools, downtown Alamo, and major commuter routes-yet tucked away in a serene, private setting-this property is ready for the next visionary owner to bring something truly special to life.
