Property is move-in ready.
Although built in 1976, the property has undergone significant recent updates (2021-2024) including new flooring, windows, and paint. Major systems are in excellent shape with a brand-new septic tank and well pump (2024). The kitchen and baths appear functional and well-maintained, though the cabinetry remains aesthetically dated, placing it firmly in the 'Good' category rather than 'Excellent'.
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 = 1170.
The property features significant recent high-ticket improvements, including a new 1,500-gallon septic tank (2024), a new submersible well pump (2024), and Milgard windows, minimizing immediate capital expenditures for the buyer.
A true gardener's paradise, the fully fenced lot is meticulously landscaped with a diverse array of fruit trees, grapes, and raised beds, offering a turnkey outdoor lifestyle and exceptional curb appeal.
At 1,170 square feet, the three-bedroom, two-bathroom layout is relatively compact, which may pose space challenges for growing families or those requiring large common areas.
Despite numerous modern cosmetic and functional updates, the 1976 construction may still reflect older architectural standards and a less open floor plan compared to contemporary builds.
Escape the hustle and bustle and settle into this charming Dayton home just 5 miles from Chico in the highly sought-after Durham school district. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on a fully fenced lot bursting with fruit trees and plants — grapes, nectarines, apricots, peaches, persimmons, pomegranates, lilacs, Meyer lemon, mandarin, lime, flowers, and raised garden beds right next to an 8x8 garden shed. Gardeners, this one's for you. Inside, a Lopi wood stove anchors the living space and a farmhouse sink, and custom built kitchen cabinets adds character to the kitchen. The home has been steadily and thoughtfully updated: new vinyl flooring (July 2021), new Milgard windows and sliding glass door (December 2021), and freshly painted interior (2021). The well is fully dialed in with a new submersible well pump, upgraded electrical wire, and all new pump electrical components (March 2024), paired with a brand-new 1,500-gallon septic tank (March 2024). Curb appeal got a major boost with new exterior house and trim paint (April 2026) and a new garage door and opener (April 2026). The stucco exterior and composition roof round out a home that has been genuinely cared for by long-time owners. Homes in Dayton don't come up often — don't wait on this one.
