Huffman-O’Malley blends nature with suburban convenience
Huffman-O'Malley is a South Anchorage suburb where homes peek from behind trees, and everyday essentials are just a short drive away.

A mix of 20th-century homes and brand-new builds
Evergreen and deciduous trees frame the residential roads, with occasional clearings that provide views of the neighboring Chugach Mountains to the east. The homes come in a variety of styles and are surrounded by trees that add a sense of privacy. “Buyers will find well-kept single-family residences alongside pockets of new construction and custom builds,” says Gina Pelaia, a Realtor with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Alaska Realty, with nearly three decades of experience in the area. "It's a community that continues to grow in a measured way." You'll find prices typically range from the high $300,000s to the low $700,000s. Larger, more recently built homes with more land can exceed $800,000 and cap around $2.6 million.

Recreation includes hiking, golfing and the Alaska Zoo
There's always something to do just around the corner. “Residents are close to some of Anchorage’s most popular attractions, including Alaska Zoo, Anchorage Golf Course and the H2Oasis Indoor Waterpark,” Pelaia says. “Having so many outdoor and family-friendly amenities nearby makes it easy to enjoy year-round recreation without traveling far.” Forsythe and Rabbit Creek parks are in the neighborhood and have walking trails and playgrounds. More hiking is just a couple of miles away, where you can explore local wildlife across the Chugach Mountains’ foothills and ridgelines.

When you live in Huffman-O'Malley, you're never far from places to eat. “Huffman-O’Malley is a fantastic area for anyone who appreciates a strong local food scene,” Pelaia says. “Moose’s Tooth Pub and Pizzeria is a staple in Anchorage. It’s one of those local spots that people keep coming back to. Also located in this area is South Restaurant, which is firmly in my top five list of great eateries in Anchorage.” From this central location, you're within a couple of miles of several shopping centers.

Nearby Route 1 aids in easy commutes
Route 1 runs along the community’s western side, supporting travel across the city and straight-shot commutes into Downtown Anchorage, 10 miles north. Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport is 9 miles away, and Providence Alaska Medical Center is a short 6-mile drive. Although getting around with some snow on the road is part of the lifestyle here, Pelaia says the city is quick to respond with plows.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
