Overview

A rare opportunity to own a piece of Albany history, this meticulously maintained 1937 home was designed and built by the celebrated Charles MacGregor. The main residence blends timeless craftsmanship with thoughtful modern upgrades across a gracious 4-bed/1.5-bath layout. On the main level, skylights bathe the home in natural light throughout, illuminating a welcoming living room with a romantic fireplace and a formal dining room. The expanded, remodeled kitchen features French doors that open directly onto a spacious western facing back deck for sunset entertaining and seamless indoor-outdoor flow. This level also hosts a convenient half-bath and a flexible bonus room perfect for a home office. Upstairs, you will find 3 additional bedrooms and a full bathroom, all boasting MacGregor’s signature quiet elegance. The property is move-in ready, featuring double-pane windows, an updated HVAC system, added insulation, seismic retrofitting, off-street parking with an EV charger, and a CLEAR PEST REPORT! Adding exceptional value, the street level features a fully permitted, self-contained 1-bed/1-bath ADU with its own independent entrance and a luxurious full size kitchen featuring Verde Vecchio Quartzite counters and Spanish floor tiling. Whether you envision rental income, a guest suite, or multigenerational living, the options are yours to choose. Situated in the heart of Albany, you are just steps from Solano Avenue, minutes from Memorial Park, and within the highly regarded Albany Unified School District.
