There are parts of Chico where the location becomes part of the way you live, and 913 Arbutus Ave. puts you right in the middle of one of them. With One Mile, and Bidwell Park just a few blocks away and Downtown Chico only a little further, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home perfectly pairs an unbeatable central location with irreplaceable original character. Step inside and sunlight fills the living room, where locally milled original hardwood floors, built-ins, and a wood-burning fireplace immediately give the home a sense of history. Its warm, bright, and unmistakably Chico. From here, the home unfolds into distinct spaces rather than one wide-open floor plan, giving everyday life places of its own. The formal dining room is made for dinners that linger, while the spacious kitchen serves as the heart of the home, with vaulted wood ceilings, skylights, and a breakfast nook offering plenty of room for a large island. French doors swing open from the kitchen straight onto a classic wraparound porch, offering a seamless transition to a spacious backyard with no rear neighbor. This open-ended outdoor canvas is ready for garden beds, entertaining, or the backyard retreat youve been dreaming of. The layout features a private, permitted 1990s primary suite complete with vaulted warm wood ceilings, a skylight, multiple closets, backyard access, and an ensuite with a walk-in double shower. The two additional bedrooms are generously sized, carrying forward something older homes often do especially well: giving you actual room to live. Complete with a new roof, newer HVAC, fresh paint inside and out, a detached oversized one car garage with 220v wiring, and a long driveway, this property beautifully blends peace of mind with timeless Chico charm.
