About This Home

As of November 2020

True Alaskan log home on 5.29 acres w/one of the shortest commutes there is. Includes MIL apartment above the detached garage!! Many updates, including kitchen w/granite countertops, hickory cabinets & breakfast bar. Home features large loft area, fireplace, woodstove, jetted tub, arctic entry & wired hot tub pad. Custom decks/walkway lead to 900sf garage & 900sf MIL apartment. This is a must see!The main house is 2,542 sq ft with 3 beds and 2 baths. The mother-in-law apartment has 1 bed, 1 bath and is an additional 900 sq ft.

Very close to the Parks Hwy/Trunk Road round-abouts with an amazingly short commute to Anchorage or JBER. You hear people talk about their half hour commute from the valley... but that's usually kind of hard to believe. This however, is the real thing. It's 30 to 35 minutes from the driveway to Muldoon Road. The property is about midway between Wasilla and Palmer, so as easy drive to either of those locations also.

At 5.29 acres there is plenty of room to stretch out. With its rolling hills the property even has a shooting range! Unusual to get this kind of acreage in such a close-in, desirable area.
