Beautiful 1.90 acres of level, fully fenced land in Lower Paradise with privacy, open views, and a peaceful setting just 11 minutes to Chico. Property features a large entry gate, fruit trees, and plenty of space for gardening, 4-H animals, or simply enjoying the outdoors. Deer and wild turkeys often wander through, adding to the natural charm. Unlike many lots in Paradise, the seller has continued paying PID water fees, so water service is active and only a meter installation is needed—saving the buyer $5,000–$6,000 in reconnection costs. With no neighbors behind, the parcel backs to large acreage owned by a cemetery, ensuring lasting privacy. The location offers the best of both worlds—close to town yet tucked in a country setting where the night skies are dark and full of stars, making the property beautiful both day and night.
