Little Chico Creek Estates is an east Chico neighborhood on former olive orchard land beside Baroni Park and Little Chico Creek, facing Meriam Park.
What is Little Chico Creek Estates like?
Once an olive orchard, this east-side neighborhood still carries the name Olive Grove Subdivision on paper, and many streets are named for olive varieties. It was built by Paul and Tim Leete along with Robb Brown. The community sits beside Baroni Park and the creek that gives it its common nickname, which distinguishes it from Big Chico Creek Estates across town. It also faces Meriam Park, a newer mixed-use development planned around trails and green space.
What should you know before buying here?
Do not confuse it with Big Chico Creek Estates on the west side. For nearby walkable newer construction, see Meriam Park and Doe Mill.
