Welcome to 486 Redwood Way, a classic Chico charmer just blocks from the beauty and recreation of Lower Bidwell Park. Nestled on a quiet, well-kept street, this 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers 1,458 sq. ft. of functional living space with the kind of warmth and character that only comes from a well-maintained home. Step inside and you’ll immediately notice the stunning original hardwood floors that run through much of the home, tying the rooms together with timeless charm. The living room is a spacious and inviting gathering place, anchored by a cozy wood-burning fireplace. Whether you’re hosting holiday parties, movie nights, or simply enjoying quiet evenings by the fire, this space is made for memory-making, and with direct access to the backyard, it’s ideal for indoor-outdoor entertaining. Just off the kitchen is the dining area, creating a seamless flow for mealtimes, whether you’re enjoying a casual breakfast or a festive dinner with friends. The kitchen is thoughtfully arranged to keep everything within reach while staying connected to the main living areas. Down the hall, you’ll find three generously sized guest bedrooms, two with new carpet [installed less than a year ago] and one with more beautiful hardwood flooring, along with a full hall bathroom. The primary suite sits at the back of the home for added privacy and includes an en-suite bathroom with a shower and vinyl flooring. Outside, the charm continues. The mature landscaping, repaired sprinkler system, and expansive covered patio create a peaceful, low-maintenance space that’s perfect for entertaining, gardening, or relaxing in the shade. Other highlights include a central HVAC system and an attached garage with laundry hookups, storage, and convenient side yard access. Whether you’re looking for your forever home or a property full of potential in one of Chico’s most loved neighborhoods, 486 Redwood Way delivers charm, function, and location in one beautiful package. Come see what makes this home so special!
