Big kitchen leads directly to the backyard. The home is on a grid-tied solar system. The full basement is quite practical with a washer and dryer and workspace. The outside area has an apple tree, grassy yard, native plantings, and patio – all receive southwest light, ideal for late afternoon to evening hanging out. The true bonus of 61st Street is the modern permitted ADU. Accessed from the side yard via a wooden gate this attractive unit has an electric boiler radiant floor heating system, a kitchen, and a stylish bath with expansive stall shower. The French doors open out onto welcome light from the east light. The functionality of this ADU is fantastic as it can serve as a separate private space or, be integrated into the flow of the yard and main house. The location of 61st is wonderful, Rockridge, Temescal, Berkeley and Bushrod Park are all very close-by. WalkScore 93/BikeScore 99 Open 6/8 and 6/9, 2:00-4:30.
