🧘♂️🌸 Welcome to the Zen Garden Retreat!
Located near Enloe and Downtown Chico, this corner-lot hideaway is the perfect place to kick off your shoes, unwind, and enjoy the peaceful charm of this beautiful town. Inspired by Japanese design, the home invites stillness, simplicity, and comfort.
🏯🛏️ Japanese-Inspired Interior:
You’ll notice several traditional elements throughout the home:
The King bed and Twin beds sit low to the ground to honor Japanese design.
Prefer a standard-height bed? The Queen bed is elevated as usual.
Please note: The home is located on a busy road.
🌿 Outdoor Spaces:
Our backyard is currently simple and undergoing redesign due to recent fires.
You`ll find:
🪑 Patio seating for 4
🔥 BBQ
♨️ Hot tub (currently more exposed than usual)
🌱 Lawn maintenance: Thursday mornings
💧 Fountain cleaning: Tuesday afternoons (flexible if needed)
⚠️🚪 Home Notes & Safety:
When entering the bonus room, please watch for the step.
The front gate is being worked on and is tied open—please do not remove or tamper with the stakes.
🚫 Do not park in front of the business across the street. Thank you!
There is local street artwork near the home—if cars slow down to look, that’s completely normal!
