Description

This home is a log cabin conveniently located minutes from the UAF campus, it is truly beautiful inside and out. Outdoor features include a custom, full-size sand volleyball court, shed, and carport. When you walk in the door, you can quickly feel how cozy the space is. The main source of heat for this cabin is a Toyo stove that was purchased brand new in 2020. It is the heat source of choice among many Alaskans for a house of this square footage due to its efficiency and reliability. The washing machine and dishwasher were also replaced in 2020 with brand new appliances, both of which are very efficient. The water system of the house is an underground holding tank that can last the house about a month on a single fill. This home offers a great blend of true cabin living and the must-have creature comforts. The downstairs of the house includes a nice open living space with a large closet and lots of built-in storage. There is lots of cabinetry in the bathroom providing lots of storage space. The washer and dryer are also in the bathroom. Upstairs is the two bedrooms. Both bedrooms are a generous size. The master bedroom runs the whole length of the cabin and has a walk-in closet. The second bedroom is slightly smaller and has a very large closet with lots of vertical storage and depth. Also worth noting, this cabin is now within the newly expanded service area of Alaska Communications for internet service. Don't miss out on your chance to check out this one-of-a-kind property.

    "Neighborhood is wonderful! Close to Ft. Wainwright (about a 5min drive to the back gate that is open from 0500 to 2000) as well as Eilson AFB (about 25min away). Contrary to other reviewer's post, this neighborhood is on the other side of town from Pioneer Park, movie theatre, and the correctional facilities. It's a quiet, family friendly neighborhood where everyone keeps to themselves but waves when you're out and about. "

    "Love this neighborhood! Right next to Ft. Wainwright's back gate (so less traffic getting on to base), 5 minute drive to the city and close to all the amenities (Fred Meyer and Costco are 4-5 min drive away), restaurants within walking distance, and friendly neighbors. Neighborhood has several children and everyone looks out for each other. "
