A 1920s 'Reimagined MacGregor Home': New To Market In Albany

ALBANY, CA — A little slice of Albany history is up for sale — a super sweet, Spanish-style residence that dates to 1926, with an ode to Charles "One Nail" MacGregor, renown for his architecture of 1920s-30s houses throughout the Albany, Berkeley and surrounding areas.

While from the street, the house appears to be on a "smaller-scale," don't be misled. The home measures 1,684 square feet and offers four bedrooms and three baths, plus such period-perfect detailing as arched doorways and a light-filled atrium. Modern updates include: chef's kitchen; second-story addition; and French doors opening to outdoor decks.
