Located approximately 90 miles north of Sacramento, Chico has a dry, mild, Mediterranean-like climate. Our town is also blessed with abundant ground water flowing out of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. West Chico, where our neighborhood is located, is known for its 20-foot deep loam soil.
Shastan Homes at Glenwood Avenue is the last infill property in the popular Emma Wilson School District. Our new neighborhood is on the urban (east) side of the Chico Area Greenline, a boundary that was established in the 1980’s to prevent agricultural areas from being lost to urban sprawl. About two miles to the west, through these agricultural areas, runs the Sacramento River State Park and public access to many recreational possibilities on the river. To the east of the neighborhood sits downtown Chico, Enloe Hospital, Chico High School, Chico Junior High School and Chico State University. Chico also offers the full range of medical services, guest lodging, shopping areas, diverse restaurants, fitness centers, cultural events and sporting events.
Our intent was to create an old fashioned Chico neighborhood that takes into account our natural human scale, accessibility, modern and alternative modes of transportation and the need for privacy in the homes. Solar Shastan Homes at Glenwood Avenue is a small oasis of just a few homes, in a prime location.
