About This Home

As of August 2020

MULTIPLE offers (3). Tour this entire home with 3D VIRTUAL REALITY precision without leaving your home! Look for the virtual tour link. You will not find another home like this one! Quintessential Alaska log home with unique character in many of its features. Take a peek at the exposed logs inside, the hobbit (but super tall for a hobbit-maybe Hagrid) front door with the castle like wooden latchand pulley lock system. Of course there is a 'normal' dead bolt also, but what a fun conversation starter with your guests! Look how tall the ceilings are. The stairs, oh my, the stairs! Half log stair treads with open back are a definite focal point in the main living area. There is a wood stove, XXL rear deck made of composite decking, a fenced in back yard, a shed, covered area (was used for a protected area for the owners dog) a greenhouse and another shed all within the fence.

Both bedrooms, the laundry closet and the main bathroom are upstairs and everything else is on the main level.

The enclosed porch in the front still allows for a lot of light due to all the windows. You still have winter protection, extra space for taking off winter gear and a place to tuck that firewood for the wood stove.

The kitchen has a country feel but has great use of space. Take a look at all the open shelving. It allows for the open feel instead of closing in the room with upper cabinets. The pantry may look smaller than it is but it is deeper than you think. They are quality hickory and seem almost new in condition.

MSB has the foundation as wood posts.
