Description

Welcome to 2848 Marigold Avenue, a rare and elegant sanctuary in the heart of Chico. Nestled on a full one-acre parcel, this 4-bedroom, 2-1/2bath, 2,197 sq. ft. home offers a unique blend of charm, space, and thoughtful updates. Situated just minutes from award-winning schools like Marigold Elementary and Pleasant Valley High, as well as some of Chico’s most beloved outdoor spaces, including Lower and Upper Bidwell Park and Wildwood Park, properties like this with room to roam and the convenience of an in-town location are nearly impossible to find. From the moment you approach the brick walkway and double-door entry under majestic shade trees, you can feel this home’s welcoming energy. Step inside to find a layout that balances warmth and functionality with natural light pouring through large windows that frame views of the mature gardens and sprawling backyard. The downstairs living space flows seamlessly with sliding doors that open from the living room and dining room to the yard. The heart of the home is a truly one-of-a-kind kitchen featuring distinctive concrete countertops, a spacious breakfast bar, updated cabinetry, and tons of natural light. It opens into a spectacular dining and family room, where wood-beamed vaulted ceilings create an elevated yet cozy ambiance. It’s a space that invites connection, whether you’re gathered around the table or simply soaking in the view. Downstairs also features a private master suite with a kitchenette, private garden, and separate entry, making it ideal for guests, a home office, or generating rental income. A half bath and laundry area are adjacent to the two-car covered carport with a security camera. Upstairs, you’ll find three more spacious bedrooms, each offering views of the lush, private property. The remodeled upstairs bathroom features granite countertops, tiled floors, updated lighting, and elegant finishes that tie the home together. Don't overlook the ADU opportunity in the back of the property. You may also consider splitting the back portion of the property with the City's permission! The gardens surrounding this home include 6 large raised beds, 18 fruit trees, berries, hops, grapes, and a multitude of roses, iris, and other plants and bulbs. The custom garden work bench, compost system, and efficient irrigation system make gardening a pleasure. There’s even a fenced spot for your RV to hook up in the shade. Homes like this don’t come along often. Welcome to Rancho Relaxo!

    "15 minute drive at most to anywhere in Chico. Drivers are more laidback. However, traffic is at its highest around noon to 6. So you can expect 10 minutes extra in commute."
