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!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
