An Alaskan-Homespun house surrounded by a vast 340 degree view of the horizon. Overlooking saltwater (once sailed by Captain Cook's galleons), three mountain ranges, two islands, a wildlife refuge and bird sanctuary, and the twinkling lights of Anchorage at night. The house is perched on the brim of a large ravine with a tumbling stream.
This homeowner-crafted home is on the edge of wilderness and only 15 minutes from midtown Anchorage. With an English cottage atmosphere with antique furniture and fun old-world decor, one little girl said, "It's old-fashioned nowadays!"
In the Yard:
Wildlife frequently passes by. A mother moose gave birth to her calf in the front yard two years ago. Eagles circle over the ravine; porcupines munch elderberry leaves in the front yard. Birds nest nearby and flit through the bushes.
The yard is in the process of being developed to take advantage of the unique Alaskan summers. Enjoy an evening fireside in the outdoor woodstove or in the firepit, drink your coffee in the wicker chair or swinging on the yardswing.
Many adventuring aspects of Alaska are only minutes away:
A world class skiing resort, a national scenic byway, a zoo, an indoor water park, lake beaches, historic trails and an early-days gold mine, four star restaurants, museums, the Performing Arts Center, the Eagan Convention Center, the Sullivan Arena, and more.
All that Alaska is famous for is easily accessible and hundreds of miles of Alaskan wilderness can be seen from the windows.
