The open-concept great room invites relaxation with a fireplace, wet bar, coffee station, 75" smart TV, and plenty of seating—perfect for gathering after a day of adventure. Large windows flood the home with natural light, while blackout shades ensure peaceful sleep during Alaska’s endless summer days. Need a quieter space? The separate media room, complete with a 55" smart TV and sleeper sofa, is ideal for movie nights or extra guests. Enjoy meals together in the full dining room or fire up the BBQ outside. The kitchen is fully equipped, and an extra fridge/freezer in the utility room makes it easy to store your fresh catch or groceries. There's also a laundry room, workspace, fenced yard, and garage with a long driveway—perfect for groups or families. Upstairs, the master suite offers a king bed, Jacuzzi tub, and double shower for a spa-like experience. Three additional queen bedrooms share a full bath stocked with essentials. Set in a peaceful, tree-lined neighborhood just 15 minutes from downtown Anchorage, you’ll be close to hiking and biking trails, local restaurants, and everything the city has to offer.
