About this property

The Hidden Gem

  • Welcome to Your Hidden Gem

    Escape to your own private retreat where you’ll feel worlds away from the city yet remain just minutes from everything Chico has to offer.

    Expansive, Private Yard
    The true highlight of this property is the oversized, tree-lined yard. Play catch, let the kids run freely, enjoy a picnic under the shade, or gather around the fire pit on a crisp fall evening. There’s space to relax, unwind, and truly breathe.

    Covered Outdoor Living
    Sip your morning coffee on the spacious covered patio, unwind in the comfortable seating area, and enjoy peaceful evenings under the string lights.

    Convenient Yet Secluded
    Tucked away for privacy, but just a short drive or bike ride to local restaurants, shopping, Bidwell Park, and Chico State.
