Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1974, this duplex is well-maintained but shows its age. While Unit A has received cosmetic updates including LVP flooring and newer carpet, the overall property retains older architectural styles and rental-grade finishes. The kitchens and bathrooms are functional but not fully modernized to current luxury standards, and the 50-year-old infrastructure suggests the property is aged but kept up through regular maintenance.
The property features two distinct units with long-term tenants already in place, providing immediate and reliable rental income for investors.
Each unit includes highly desirable features typically found in single-family homes, such as private backyards, covered patios, and individual attached 2-car garages.
Centrally located in Chico, the property is within a 10-minute drive of both essential shopping and the vibrant dining and entertainment of the downtown area.
Originally built in 1974, the property may require ongoing maintenance or capital improvements to major systems despite recent cosmetic updates to Unit A.
A recent price reduction and extended time on the market suggest that the property has struggled to find its price point in the current environment.
