    What's special

    Welcome to 234 W. 3rd Avenue, a Chico charmer tucked into the Avenues neighborhood. This property offers a flexible layout with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom in the main home, plus a detached potential ADU space featuring an additional room, full bathroom, and mini-split heating and air system. It adds a fantastic layer of versatility. Inside the main home you will find hardwood floors, Anderson windows, an updated kitchen and bathroom, generous bedrooms and closets (with shelving), fresh ceiling fixtures, and bay-window seat (with hidden storage). A separate sunroom, with laundry connection, is a bonus space to enjoy, as well as the oversized, covered front porch. Outside, the shaded, low-maintenance backyard is a peaceful retreat (especially welcome during Chico summers) along with gutters with guards and a low-water-use landscape. The covered carport with a garage door provides privacy, security, and peace of mind while offering covered parking. Then there’s the location. You’re right in the heart of the Aves, close to Enloe Medical Center and just minutes from neighborhood parks, downtown Chico, and more. Nearby Enloe Park is a sweet bonus for families, with room for kiddos to play and seasonal decorations that make it especially fun around the holidays. Charming, flexible, and wonderfully Chico, 234 W. 3rd Avenue is ready for its next chapter.
