EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Prime Downtown Chico Restaurant Property – 131 Broadway Street
Located in the heart of Downtown Chico between 1st and 2nd Streets, just a half block from California State University, Chico, this mid-size restaurant building offers a rare opportunity to own real estate in one of the most vibrant and high-traffic blocks in the city.
