ALAMEDA, CA — Landsea Homes announced Tuesday that it has acquired 182 homesites for a master-planned community at the Alameda Marina Waterfront, with 15 percent of the homes offered under Alameda County's affordable housing program.

The development's residents will have access to bike trails, walking paths, paddleboat opportunities, waterfront dining and outdoor activities.

Sales are expected to begin next summer.

“Landsea Homes is thrilled to be a part of Alameda Marina’s renovation that will merge the regions maritime history with mixed-use and a residential district,” said Josh Santos of Landsea Homes. “It’s a new way to look at island life and we are excited to create homes to spotlight everything the area has to offer, along with bringing our modern and quality high performance homes to a new city in the Bay Area for us.”

Landsea Homes will build two different neighborhoods.

The first neighborhood, called Island View, includes 98 homes with seven different floor plans ranging from 1,462 square feet to 2,386 square feet. Each home will feature an outdoor porch and deck, and some floor plans will offer private roof top deck space with expansive views of the marina.
