Property Description
Welcome to your own private retreat in the heart of Oroville—a rare blend of sustainable living, timeless design, and development potential. Once owned by world champion boxer Bobby Chacon, this beautifully upgraded mid-century modern home sits on a lush, .84-acre lot. Located in a low fire risk insurance zone and offering no electric bill, this property delivers resort-style living with real-world practicality.The home is powered by a massive 12.21 kWp owned solar system, supplemented by a 10kW SolarEdge backup battery and two 5kW Enphase everyday-use batteries, powering essential systems including appliances, garage circuits, and a basement sump pump. A Level 2 EV charger is also included. A brand-new AC condenser adds to the comfort, and sleek automatic blinds help manage light and energy efficiency with ease.Inside, large picture windows flood the open-concept living area with natural light and offer views of your own “secret garden” backyard, complete with a tranquil koi pond, brick pizza oven, built-in barbecue, and a lush array of fruit trees—grapefruit, lime, lemon, orange, and mandarins—alongside fragrant lavender. The pool, resurfaced and upgraded with a variable-speed pump and new lighting, is accompanied by a pool house featuring a working shower, toilet, and changing area. Unique touches abound, from the library/den to the smart built-in Murphy bed that adds functionality to the living space. The remodeled kitchen (2018) features quartz countertops and updated appliances. Beyond the main house, a fully permitted 800 sq. ft. detached structure offers two distinct spaces: a 400 sq. ft. shop with street access, its own garage door, a 50-amp outlet, and separate breakers—ideal for a workshop or creative studio—and a 400 sq. ft. gym with mini-split HVAC, ethernet wiring, and a dedicated 100-amp panel. Storage is abundant, with three exterior closets adjacent to the garage. This property is also prepped for future expansion, featuring a second, attached lot with a 1,000 sq. ft. permitted stem wall and full utility hookups—ready for an ADU, guest house, or income-producing rental. Whether you're drawn to its smart upgrades, peaceful outdoor amenities, or its impressive potential, this home offers a lifestyle you won't want to leave.
