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.

More hiking is just a couple of miles away, where you can explore local wildlife across the Chugach Mountains’ foothills and ridgelines.

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.
