Step into charm and opportunity in the heart of Fremont’s historic Niles neighborhood! This beautifully updated Northeast-facing, 3-bedroom, 1-bath home sits on a rare 18,900 sq ft corner lot with a classic raised foundation, inviting front porch, and refinished hardwood floors throughout. The remodeled kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and shaker cabinetry. The light-filled layout flows effortlessly between the living room, dining area, kitchen, and other spaces. The spacious backyard and full basement (with laundry and workshop space) offer room to grow, create, or relax. According to the City of Fremont, a second home of approximately 2,000 sq ft may be built on the lot, with the current home converted into an ADU (buyer to verify). Seller has submitted building plans to the city. Just blocks from the Alameda Creek Trail, downtown Niles shops, parks, and top-rated schools—this is your chance to own a slice of history with modern potential!
