About this property

Four Bedroom Beauty in Historic Neighborhood

Tower House, named for a nearby, iconic water tower, is a spectacular four bedroom home located in Chico's historic Avenues neighborhood. The century-old bungalow, beautifully remodeled and expanded to 2,000 square feet of elegance and inviting style, is family friendly and studded with welcoming spaces. Each floor has two bedrooms and a bathroom. Several blocks to restaurants and stores; easy walk to downtown Chico, CSU campus and Bidwell Park. Three bikes make exploring fun and easy.
we bought and furnished a home to meet our own high expectations: gourmet kitchen, quality linens, blackout drapes, expansive TV selections and fast wifi. We have books, board games and playing table, and are baby friendly with pack n play, high chair, toys and stairway gates if needed.

Our decor is neutral and soothing and the upstairs bathroom includes a claw foot soaking tub. This home offers plenty of space to enjoy, whether in still-Covid cautious times or in the future when normal life and big celebrations resume. (Note our professional cleaning service adheres rigidly to covid hygiene standards.)

Downstairs includes enclosed front porch, living room, kitchen, dining and two bedrooms on either side of a bathroom. Upstairs has the primary bedroom (with private deck and large closet), a queen sized bedroom and a bathroom with shower and soaking tub between the two.

We've stocked the kitchen with brand new dishes and glassware for 12. We provide both Keurig and 12-cup coffee makers; everyday cooking gear along with instant pot, crock pot, immersion blender, ricer, food processor and hand mixer.

The enclosed front porch is perfect for morning coffee; the upstairs veranda or wisteria-draped side patio (with table and chairs) is ideal for afternoon happy hour. Backyard landscape renovation is underway. For peace of mind or potential health care needs, Enloe Hospital is just two blocks away. And if homeschool or remote working is on the agenda, rest assured Tower House offers several ideal spots to set up shop. We want you to have an easy stay that starts with keypad entry. No keys to worry about! We are proud to have all five star reviews and appreciate the comments about the home’s scrupulous cleanliness. We work with Chico’s premier commercial cleaning crew. Price includes local taxes.

Perfection in Chico!
We loved everything about our stay! From the games, to the thoughtfully curated binder of information about the house and Chico, to the absolutely beautiful home, we wish we could have stayed longer.

Exceeded our Expectations
We were in Chico for an anniversary party. Our family of seven -all adults- stayed at the house. The house was perfect for our needs. Everyone had their own bedroom and there was plenty of space for us to gather in the great room/kitchen. The house is clean, well supplied and comfortable! It was decorated for the holidays which was a nice surprise, and there were nice touches throughout the house such as fresh flowers. We had a wonderful stay and I would recommend this house to anyone!

Highly recommended
We couldnt have stayed in a more perfect home for our family wedding trip. The house is stunning, exceptionally clean, very well appointed with anything you could want or need, very comfortable, and in a fantastic neighborhood. We will definitely stay again the next time we are in the area. Host was warm, gracious and very responsive as well!

Perfection!
Everything was just perfect, from our communications with Maggie, the host to our stay in her beautiful home. The only issue we had was due to the heat wave hitting northern CA and waiting for the A/C to kick in. Once it did, we were in luxury and comfort. We only wish that business the next morning didn't take us away from this delightful location so soon! Thank you Maggie for creating a lovely space and for your first class hosting. Until the next time!

About the host

Hosted by Maggie Cox

Host profile image
We are a Chico native/ Chico State alum and spouse who have been lured back by the arrival of our first grandchild, who lives three blocks away with our daughter and son in law. We are ecstatic to be back.

Why they chose this property

This home is ideally located in one of Chico's oldest, best character neighborhoods. Easy walk to downtown; nearby restaurants and grocery stores. Just two blocks to Enloe Hospital, and two blocks off Chico's gracious Esplanade.

On top of location, this home has a century-plus of character (original small house was built in 1908); we've added square footage, spaciousness and modern appointments, all designed for easy and elegant living.

What makes this property unique

We love this house and every minute we spend in it....and are happy to offer it to guests for the times we are not here. After years of staying in air bnb b's and VRBO properties, we wanted a home with thoughtful design and equipment, matching dishes and towels, good cookware, contemporary decor, and a warm, welcoming, comfortable and safe feeling. This is a house we've made a home.
