Nestled in one of Chico's most prime and desirable locations, this 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home offers private backyard access to Bidwell Park - a rare find that blends timeless charm with modern conveniences. Built in 1933, this 1,320 sq. ft. home exudes character, with beautifully maintained original hardwood floors that have stood the test of time, adding warmth and history to the space. The Seller's love and care for the home shine through in the thoughtful updates and details throughout. From the moment you arrive, you'll be drawn in by the home's charming curb appeal - a gated front yard and driveway, raised garden beds ready for vibrant blooms or homegrown produce, and a second privacy fence that creates an intimate front patio seating area. Step inside to a spacious living room, perfect for gathering with loved ones. A freshly refinished wood-burning fireplace serves as a stunning focal point, while the Seller's removal of the popcorn ceiling enhances the home's character with a fresh, smooth finish. The updated kitchen stays true to the home's era while offering modern functionality. The stylish honeycomb backsplash, solid surface countertops, and bold flooring add flair, while the light-filled dining area invites you to enjoy meals with a view. Off the kitchen, you'll find a convenient indoor laundry room and direct access to the gated carport. Down the hall, the bedrooms offer serene retreats, with the room at the end of the hallway being an ideal office space. But the true gem of the home is the finished basement, which has been beautifully transformed into a third bedroom with built-in beds and central heating & air, ensuring year-round comfort. Outside, the good-sized backyard is a blank canvas, ready for your personal touch. A separate shop provides extra storage or a perfect space for gardening tools. Located just down the street from Parkview Elementary, minutes from Downtown Chico, local amenities, and with easy freeway access, this home offers an unbeatable combination of charm, convenience, and an incredible backyard escape into Bidwell Park. Don't miss this rare opportunity - schedule your showing today!
