Best deal in a quality classic one of a kind home. One of Chicos best locations, located next to Bidwell Park with a private gate going directly into the natural beauty of one of Americas 2nd largest city park. Loads hiking, biking and running trails at your doorstep. Classic architectural charm throughout and a home that has that wow factor that everyone is looking for. Located on cul-de-sac street with very little traffic but within walking distance to schools and city bus services. Built in 1965, when todays cheap cookie cutter style homes were only being thought of by greedy land developers. Back then, beauty and quality of the build were the main consideration , construction cost, was not ever taken into account and it shows. This 3 bedroom 3 bath 2700 S/f home has it all and has been updated with a gourmet kitchen , top of the line stainless Appliance ( sub Zero & Kitchen Aid ), granite counters and custom cabinets throughout. Also, remodeled are the 3 bathrooms with colorful decorator tiled showers and baths. Beautiful original real hardwood floors throughout and a real brick fireplace in the living room. Nine foot ceiling with lots of crown moulding in every main room. Warm feeling throughout as home is light and airy with large glass ( dual pane) windows in every room. Energy efficient 2.5 inch blinds and Electronic controlled shades are also a treat. By the way, these type of large windows are no longer allowed (gotta love "big brother" California rules) , but boy are they nice and a real talking point. Most windows are looking out to views of Bidwell park and the large in-ground pool that's surrounded by many magnificent Oak trees. Did I mention that home has paid for almost new $70,000 Solar system with battery back for supper low PG & E bills
