Overview

Exceedingly rare opportunity to own the one and only north-facing penthouse at Bay 37 - affectionately known as “The Unicorn.” This single-level, flat-style residence was showcased as the original model home for the community, celebrated for its breathtaking views of both the San Francisco skyline and the Oakland Estuary - unique among all Bay 37 homes. The coveted Plan 4 layout, largest of the flat-style designs, is bathed in natural light and offers an expansive open-concept living area with a chef’s kitchen, oversized island, and inviting breakfast nook flowing seamlessly to a private deck - perfect for morning coffee or sunset views. The elevator-serviced building provides a rooftop deck, secure entry, bike storage, and a private two-car garage. Residents enjoy a waterfront lifestyle with scenic walking paths, a park, picnic areas, playground, and community dock. Conveniently close to Bohol Circle Immigrant Park, Target, Safeway, and local dining. Commuting is effortless with a free shuttle to 12th St. BART, water taxi to Jack London Square, and nearby ferry access to San Francisco. A rare combination of design, light, and coastal luxury - the ultimate expression of Alameda’s modern waterfront living.
