Escape the hustle and bustle and settle into this charming Dayton home just 5 miles from Chico in the highly sought-after Durham school district. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on a fully fenced lot bursting with fruit trees and plants — grapes, nectarines, apricots, peaches, persimmons, pomegranates, lilacs, Meyer lemon, mandarin, lime, flowers, and raised garden beds right next to an 8x8 garden shed. Gardeners, this one's for you. Inside, a Lopi wood stove anchors the living space and a farmhouse sink, and custom built kitchen cabinets adds character to the kitchen. The home has been steadily and thoughtfully updated: new vinyl flooring (July 2021), new Milgard windows and sliding glass door (December 2021), and freshly painted interior (2021). The well is fully dialed in with a new submersible well pump, upgraded electrical wire, and all new pump electrical components (March 2024), paired with a brand-new 1,500-gallon septic tank (March 2024). Curb appeal got a major boost with new exterior house and trim paint (April 2026) and a new garage door and opener (April 2026). The stucco exterior and composition roof round out a home that has been genuinely cared for by long-time owners. Homes in Dayton don't come up often — don't wait on this one.
