Here's an opportunity! Live in one half and rent out the other. Great location, close to Chico State University, Downtown Chico, bars, restaurants, shopping, Farmers Market, Lower Bidwell Park and more. The front unit (unit A) is a 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom charmer with a very efficient flow. Large open living room leads into the dining and kitchen area. There is a door off of the kitchen that is the access into the shared laundry room, which also has a door that leads out to the back patio. Each door in the laundry room has its own lock for privacy. The bedroom in unit A is large and it has lots of closet space and in the bathroom there is a shower/tub combo. Unit B is accessed through the back. There is a concrete pathway from the driveway that leads to it. Inside unit B you are greeted with simple and efficient studio living but it feels bigger because the ceilings are vaulted in the living space. In the bathroom there is also a shower/tub combo. The access to the laundry room for unit B is through the door on the back patio.
