Think you can't afford to buy a home in Chico? Think again, with this sturdy 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom house with ENORMOUS back yard, 2-car garage and hardwood floors in living room, hallway and all bedrooms! It's true - this home needs some love and definitely some updating, but the buyer who's willing to invest some resources and effort can end up with a pretty sweet little home close to schools, shopping, restaurants and easy freeway access. Same family has owned the property since 1964 and has installed dual-pane windows, central air conditioning/heating, and a tankless water heater. Now check out the back yard, with an extremely spacious patio cover, perfect for entertaining, a hot tub or just plain fun outdoor living. Plenty of room for play structures or a soccer goal. If gardening's your thing, you'll be astounded by the enclosed garden with nearby water, just waiting for the next crop of whatever you decide to plant! Consider an ADU in the yard for extra income and a faster mortgage paydown - there's plenty of room and the property is hooked up to the sewer though many around it are not. A great starter home, awaiting your renovation magic! Don't let someone else beat you to it - because at this price, you can bet many will try! House will be sold as-is. Owner will make no repairs nor improvements.
