About This Home
Welcome to this storybook home that blends classic Chico character with updated amenities and solar. A white picket fence, cobblestone pathways, mature landscaping and an inviting front porch set the tone before you step inside the mahogany door. Soaring ceilings and rich floors enhance the bright, spacious living room, anchored by a large bay window perfect for sunlight and reading nooks. The dining area and kitchen are ideal for entertaining, featuring white cabinetry, white appliances and a built-in buffet. Three roomy bedrooms offer updated flooring and high ceilings for an airy feel. The bathroom is timeless with black-and-white tile and a new shower. Thoughtful details include crown molding, wood-paneled doors, dual-pane windows with blinds, and convenient indoor laundry. Outside, the fully gated backyard provides privacy and a generous patio for relaxing, BBQs or weekend brunches. Excellent location—just moments from Bidwell Park and Downtown Chico. A beautifully maintained home with timeless curb appeal and modern livability.
