Welcome to 1170 Marian Ave, nestled in a serene country setting where vintage charm meets everyday comfort. This delightful 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom 1950's home was updated and enlarged in 1989 to offer 1,520 sq. ft. of thoughtfully designed living space on a generous 0.28-acre lot. Located just minutes from Downtown Chico, Chico State, and local amenities, this peaceful neighborhood provides the perfect balance of quiet retreat and urban access. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be greeted by lush landscaping and a picturesque front porch framed by greenery—an ideal place to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind after a long day. Inside, natural light pours into the spacious living room, where original hardwood floors and a cozy brick fireplace with a wood-burning stove create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The kitchen and dining area offer an open-concept flow perfect for entertaining. A skylight brightens the kitchen, which includes a gas stove, pantry, and a mix of tile counters and vinyl flooring for timeless style and everyday functionality. Just off the dining area, a door leads directly to the backyard, making indoor-outdoor living seamless. Each of the three bedrooms is filled with light and features wood floors, ceiling fans, and dual-pane windows for comfort and efficiency. The spacious primary suite includes vaulted ceilings, private backyard access, and a full en-suite bathroom with dual sinks and a shower/tub combo. Step outside and discover a fully fenced backyard designed for relaxation and recreation. You’ll enjoy a large concrete patio, raised garden beds, mature fruit trees, and a roller gate for access to the rear of the property. An access road to the south leads to the detached covered RV parking area and shop, offering space for hobbies, storage, or your next project. Whether you’re looking for space to grow, a place to entertain, or simply a home that offers both tranquility and convenience, 1170 Marian Ave is ready to welcome you.
