Property is move-in ready.
Built in 1959 but features significant recent renovations including an updated kitchen with quartz countertops and newer stainless steel appliances. While the guest bathroom retains a 'retro' pink tile aesthetic, the addition of a private primary suite, dedicated office, and well-maintained outdoor amenities like the pool and deck indicate the home has been updated within the 5-15 year window, making it fully move-in ready.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 8712, living area = 1563.
Situated on a quiet cul-de-sac just one block from Lower Bidwell Park and Big Chico Creek, offering exceptional access to Chico's premier outdoor recreation and natural beauty.
The home features a stylishly updated kitchen with quartz countertops and stainless appliances, complemented by original hardwood floors and a functional split-wing floor plan.
While well-maintained with a newer pump and liner, the above-ground pool may not carry the same long-term value or aesthetic appeal as a permanent in-ground installation for some buyers.
Originally built in 1959, the property may require ongoing attention to older systems or structural elements typical of homes from this era, despite the high-quality cosmetic updates.
