Why Margaret Donat and Russell Smith chose College
We fell in love with this property because of the view, the easy access to hiking, cross country skiing, biking and the beautiful gardens. We had lived in Fairbanks for many years and yearned to be in the hills where it is quiet, the aurora is not masked by city lights and the winter temperatures are much warmer. This property is perfect. It only takes 10 minutes to get to town, yet it feels like we are very rural. We love the trails that are right outside our door as we are avid outdoors people. We also enjoy watching the wildlife that live in the area with us. Parking is plentiful and the main house has all the right spaces. We live on the top 2 floors and have turned the lower level into Margaret's art studio/classroom. There she paints and creates glasswork for Two Street Gallery in Fairbanks, and Stephan Gallery in Anchorage. She is often available for a tour if you are interested.
