About the Property
Welcome to 1705 & 1707 Spruce Avenue, where timeless charm meets modern opportunity in the heart of the Avenues. This unique property sits on a spacious corner lot and offers two separate residences, a 3-bedroom main home plus a detached 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom cottage, just minutes from historic Downtown Chico, Chico State University, Bidwell Park, and a few short blocks from Enloe Medical Center. The main home radiates warmth and character, blending turn-of-the-century details with modern comforts like updated dual-paned windows, central heating and air, and a tankless water heater. The layout includes a spacious living room, a full bathroom, three well-sized bedrooms, and a private, fully fenced backyard featuring raised garden beds perfect for green thumbs or simply relaxing in your own retreat. A detached 1-car garage offers power, laundry hookups, and flexibility to use as a workshop, parking, or additional storage. Tucked away with its own private entrance and fully fenced yard, the charming detached cottage is a standout feature. With its own postal address, the cottage offers great separation and privacy. Recent upgrades throughout, including a fully equipped kitchen and a remodeled bathroom, make this unit move-in ready and highly desirable. Both units are currently leased with strong rental history and offer a cap rate well above 5%, making it an ideal property for investors looking to generate income from day one, or for future owner-occupants seeking flexibility and additional rental income.
