1014 Alhambra Ave

Welcome to 1014 Alhambra Avenue, a beautifully restored 1870 Italianate home in the heart of historic downtown Martinez. This elegant residence thoughtfully blends period character with modern comfort, offering bright, inviting living spaces and carefully considered updates throughout. A gracious hallway with high ceilings, a distinctive archway, restored lighting, and warm cherry wood floors draws you into the living room, where natural light highlights original details such as a pocket door and classic picture rails. The formal dining room features a gas fireplace and lovely views of Japanese maple trees, flowing easily into the chef’s kitchen. The kitchen opens directly to a peaceful rear deck and private yard, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection ideal for catching the evening breeze and soft sunset light. The primary suite provides a quiet retreat with garden views, while orange trees are visible from the front and middle bedrooms. Outside, the backyard is a true oasis filled with drought-tolerant plantings, a Meyer lemon tree, roses, wisteria, and a fig tree. Significant upgrades include a brand-new sewer line, owned solar, HVAC, French drains, a fully updated chef’s kitchen with high-end appliances, custom cabinetry, and soapstone counters. Additional flexible space is available in the partially finished attic and basement/crawl space. Ideally located just steps from restaurants, shops, Amtrak, hiking trails, schools, and everything downtown Martinez has to offer.
