About This Home

This beautiful Alaskan chalet offers a rustic, off-grid lifestyle in a private, end of the road setting. The true arctic entryway provides welcome shelter from Alaska's elements while still giving easy access to nature right outside your door. The Aqua Therm outdoor wood boiler and hydronic heating system is a is safe and efficient heat source. It could be attached to an oil-fired Toyo Tommy unit If the new owner decides to pursue this option, it could greatly increase the usability and convenience of the heating/hot water system. This system is also tied into the garage. Take advantage of nearby trails for outdoor adventures or enjoy some peaceful moments to cross country ski, take up skijoring or bring out your ATV. Perhaps you want to take some lessons on photographing the northern lights or focus on the local wildlife. Either way, you cannot go wrong with this location. The loft en-suite bedroom overlooks the living room and offers views of the mountains in the distance. A wood fired boiler with hydronic heat keeps everything nice and warm in even the coldest winter weather. The woodstove is centrally located in the living room for another heat source. Need a place to store that outdoor gear, fishing gear, skis, camping and other recreational equipment? There is plenty of space for storage in the a deep crawlspace and also in the loft of the detached two car garage. This home has all the charm of an Alaskan getaway with the chalet style plan and the tongue and groove wood walls. Can you picture yourself living off grid and away from the hustle and bustle of the typical home? Make an appointment to see this one for yourself! The kitchen was conveniently designed to pun without power. The fridge and the stove are both run off propane from an exterior propane tank (but plumbed through the crawlspace) There is also a propane wall heater in the kitchen which can be used as a backup and supplemental heating source. This property consists of two lots being sold together. The garage is on one property and the home on the other. Road is not MSB maintained, can be 'soft' during breakup. Due to all the snow this winter, showings should be with made with that in mind. Please be respectful and no drivebys. Appointments have to be made for the seller with 24 hour notice. Property is being sold AS IS and sellers are not intending on doing repairs at this price. Home was built in 2015 and garage was built in 2013.
