Property description
This amazing DUPLEX has a vacant unit on top and a great tenant below. Live in the top unit and rent the lower unit. This location is close to everything including Chico State University, Down Town Chico, Farmers Market, Lower Bidwell Park, Enloe Hospital and so much more. The exterior was just scraped, dry rot was repaired and both the duplex and the garage got a fresh coat of exterior paint. The upstairs unit also has a fresh coat of paint in the interior, and new carpet. Both units have a great flow where the kitchen is open to the dining and living space area. They also both have new ductless heating and air conditioning systems, dual pane windows throughout, and they each have their own individual laundry area. The electrical for both of the units have been updated, and the roof was installed on the main house and the garage in 2019. Speaking of the garage, most of the garages that are in the alley have been converted into an ADU, so there is some upside potential there, along with some off street parking and locking gate that connects the parking area to the back yard area. Both of the units do have a front entrance and a rear entrance.
