A rare Barber beauty renovated in 2022! This single family 3/2 home offers a rare and coveted floor plan that is perfect for those seeking to live in half the house while renting out the other half for passive income, AirBNB buyers (seller’s previous annual income was $24,000 from the one bedroom unit alone!), or folks seeking a multi generational living arrangement! Located in the highly sought after Barber Neighborhood with a drought tolerant fully fenced front yard and just minutes to Downtown and CSU, Chico, this home’s floor plan is one of a kind! The front portion of the house offers 2 bed/1 bath, a generous living area, full kitchen, full bath, an individual stackable washer and dryer, central heating and air conditioning, dual pane windows throughout and laminate flooring throughout. The back end of the home can be accessed through a conjoining door that can be locked off to separate both wings of the house for independent living. The back “unit” offers a roomy 1 bed/1 bath with an open concept designer kitchen that is just 3 years old and is open to the living area. This space is light, bright and updated throughout with a stainless steel dishwasher, oven, full fridge, vented exhaust fan and open concept shelving. A sliding glass door off the living area of the back unit leads to a spacious and inviting deck that overlooks a deep lot with plenty of room for an ADU! In fact, prior permits were completed and a survey are on file to expand this property further! The 1/1 back unit can be accessed through the main portion of the house OR through a designated gated path from the sidewalk. The back unit boasts dual pane windows, laminate flooring, a tankless SMART water heater that anticipates usage patterns, and a ductless mini split for energy efficient heating and cooling. The back unit primary bathroom is beautifully updated featuring a walk-in shower, Moroccan style tile throughout, and its own individual stackable washer and dryer. The spacious backyard beyond the deck is currently a blank slate and has an additional entrance from the back alley, giving this even more potential to expand this property including an ADU and/or enclosing the covered carport to make a 3rd studio unit! This property boasts tremendous potential if you’re looking for an AirBNB and beyond. In fact the owner has a successful and highly rated Airbnb listing (4.87/5 stars) for several years.
