830 Esplanade, Chico, CA 95926

Property Description

This vintage home is true 1940's with modern touches as needed. The fine old character still shines through. The foyer, living and dining rooms are classically grand. The old style light fixtures, art niches, softly curved plaster walls and ceilings with arches and big windows, maintain the old style of grand living on Chico's famous Esplanade. This home feels like a setting for an old movie... A swinging door opens to a sunny breakfast nook, old style kitchen and a wall of built-ins that will take you back in time. The laundry room and basement provide lots of storage. Lots of unfinished attic space. The 4th bed and 2nd bath, sitting privately upstairs were originally the maid's quarters. The shady yard is large with an old brick wall and walkway with alley access. This pretty blue house sits a small side street with permit-parking that is for residents only. There is lots of off street parking. This prime location is in Chico's most charming and most 'happening' neighborhood! Sitting on the threshold to Chico's restaurants, night spots, shops, and our cool Farmer's Markets, you are just steps from CSUC, Gateway Museum and a new art museum. The bus stops at the corner. Chico's beloved Bidwell Park is a short walk away. This location is irreplaceable.
