If your life needs more room, both inside and out, check out these two houses on 3/4 of an acre near the northwestern edge Chico. The Bell Road area is sprinkled with orchards, farms and gardens. This property has a lot to offer. A big house, a little house and it even has a tree house! Both houses have their own yards with a friendly gate between them. The larger house is a 3/2 with plastered, coved ceilings, charming archways, hardwood floors and a stone fireplace. This older home was remodeled to add more open space. There are living, dining and family rooms, and a large kitchen with a great view of the fenced back yard. The salt water pool, with retractable fencing has easy access to the exterior pool bath and dressing room. Beyond the large backyard fence there is a very large garden area that runs behind both houses. The garage has extra storage or work space. The smaller house, set back from the road, is a 1/1 with kitchen, living room, eating area, bedroom, bath and private back deck. Both houses have central heat and air and share well and septic systems. The tree house is original and may need some updating. The back neighbor grows almost five acres of flowers and veggies. This is a sweet location. Please verify size and details of each house.

VLDR
Very Low Density Residential Zone
The purpose of the VLDR zone is to allow for single-family homes and related uses in residential neighborhoods within the county. Standards for the VLDR zone are intended to preserve and protect the character of existing neighborhoods and to ensure that new residential neighborhoods provide an appropriate transition from rural to more developed areas. Permitted residential uses in the VLDR zones include single-family homes, small residential care homes, accessory dwelling units, animal grazing, on-site agricultural product sales, and private stables. The VLDR zone also conditionally permits non-residential uses compatible with a residential setting, including public and quasi-public uses, golf courses, park and recreational facilities, personal services, animal-keeping, large residential care homes, and medical offices and clinics. The minimum permitted parcel size in the VLDR zone is 1 acre. The VLDR zone implements the Very Low Density Residential land use designation in the General Plan.
