Description

Some properties are hard to categorize. This is one of them. Tucked into the coveted Paseo Companeros neighborhood, this fully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is a rare combination of thoughtful modern updates and irreplaceable character. The interior was comprehensively reimagined — new roof, floors, kitchen, bathrooms, windows, doors, lighting, HVAC, septic and leach lines — all done with care and quality that shows the moment you walk in. The open floor plan flows into a spacious family room, an inside garden, and a yoga room that sets this home apart from anything else in this price range. Step outside and the property opens into something truly extraordinary. A brick patio with fire pit anchors the back of the home, surrounded by mature, meticulously maintained gardens with excellent loamy soils and a full sprinkler system. The crown of it all: what is believed to be the largest and oldest Valley Oak in Chico — over 400 years old, recently lightened and shaped — casting shade that transforms the property on even the hottest summer days. Beyond the gardens, the rear of the property tells a story of its own. The original animal barn from the ranch that predates the subdivision has been preserved and updated, featuring three working stalls, a center room workshop, and two storage rooms. A steel-frame greenhouse with water and electricity, a fenced pasture planted with forage grasses, a vegetable garden area, and a fully finished adult-sized two-room playhouse with loft, electricity, and water round out a back acreage that is genuinely one-of-a-kind. The entire property is enclosed by roughly 800 linear feet of wrought iron fence panels set between brick posts.
