1614 Arbutus Ave, Chico, CA 95926

Property Description

Locals love the neighborhoods in the East Avenues. Stroll down Arbutus and Sunset Avenues and feel yourself relax - like you are stepping back to a more gentle time. The yards are well tended and the homes are tidy, in traditional 1940's style. The neighborhood has not changed much over the years. You still see neighbors chatting and people mowing their own lawns. The home at 1614 Arbutus is a home that speaks of lazy visits on the front porch and puttering with your plants outside on nice evenings. The living room has shiny hardwood oak floors and a cozy fireplace. The dining room has a simple, quaint feel with a good view of the neighborhood. The kitchen has been opened up a bit, but still has the old fashioned feel where you want to put on a pot of tea and go sit out on the porch after you get the dishes done. The laundry room is at the back of the kitchen and the 3 bedrooms and 2 baths are off the hall. The master bedroom has been enlarged and a spacious master bath has been added. The home is comfortable with central heat and air. Some windows have been updated. The side yard extends the driveway to over 30 feet, which allows a place to park your toys. The backyard features what looks like a secret garden, with a cute old time, gated entrance. There is a carport with a small shop in the back, that needs some work. Hooker Oak Elementary school is a few blocks away, as are S&S Natural Foods, Cozy Diner, and the Cookie Shop. Don't miss this charming home in a good location.
