Some people see a ten-minute drive through the canyon. The right buyer sees something different-a reset and a buffer between the world and home. Behind the gate, this custom Wayland Construction built home sits on 9 private acres with sweeping foothill views. Designed for modern comfort, this brand-new 3 bedroom, 2 bath home features stone countertops, laminate flooring, quality appliances, a spacious kitchen island and a built in pantry offering excellent storage. A thoughtful split floor plan places the primary suite on one side of the home, with two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom on the opposite side for added privacy. A dedicated laundry room adds everyday functionality. Outdoor living is at the heart of the property, with a swimming pool, and outdoor kitchen built for long summer evenings under open sky. The acreage also includes a barn with two separate stalls and a small shop at the rear-ideal for animals, projects, or additional storage. Two RV hookup areas offer flexibility for guests or travel accommodations, with one featuring washer, dryer and refrigerator connections located below an elevated gazebo, creating a unique treehouse style perch to enjoy the surrounding views. A 40-foot shipping container and shed provides additional storage space. The home also features fully owned solar for long-term efficiency and is located within a recognized Firewise community. A rare opportunity to enjoy privacy, views, and space to breathe-all within Chico city limits.
