1419 Chestnut St, Chico, CA 95928

Between the pulse of its culturally rich roots and prime access to the area’s University and lively Downtown, you’ll be smitten with this mid-century cutie on Chestnut Street. Located just a block from the proposed Diamond Match Factory/Barber Yard development, this 2BD/1BA property boasts as much potential as it does charm: long-term lease to vacation rental, college student starter to first-time homeowner’s slam dunk. The 1957 home strikes a quintessential atomic profile in this up-and-coming neighborhood, with updates that honor its cool vintage and functionality for modern times. The newer roof (5 years) keeps the residence shaded & chilled in warm months, and dry in the more precipitous ones. Near-new water heater plus annually-serviced F/A system keep the promise of comfort strong year-round. Fully-fenced front and backyard offer focal points of raised garden beds, well-tended lawn, and mature blossoming stunners -- jasmine and dogwood– that transform any Spring and Summer into Technicolor. Send a wave in greeting as you snag the daily mail, or swap stories beneath the covered front porch as you get acquainted with your community. Cozy interior blends heritage and convenience in a meticulous single-level design across refinished hardwood flooring, framed by ample natural light. Fresh paint throughout is your invitation to personalize this blank palette. Numerous updates headlined by refreshed bathroom, complete with new fixtures and flooring; and enhanced kitchen that satisfies the cook or entertainer in your household with a recently gas-plumbed stove, playfully reimagined cabinetry, and fresh laminate flooring. Across the back deck is a detached garage/workshop with alley access and additional parking that includes two bonus rooms. Create, repair and compile from within, or take a creative leap and transform this slightly rehabbed space into a fully-independent ADU. Whether for nest or invest, this doo-wop darling’s turn-key quarters checks all the boxes and provides maximum versatility!
