Why they chose this property

Centrally located in Anchorage at the dead end of a safe, family-friendly street.

Ranch-style Duplex shares one wall with the other unit owned by a long-term neighbor.

Only 10 minutes to Providence and Alaska Native Medical Centers and UAA.

Just minutes to shopping, dining, parks, trails, recreation, UAA, hospitals and Seward Highway (see the listing map and details below.)
