3 bedroom, 2 bath turn-key home on 1.75 acres in South Anchorage with views of Cook Inlet. A modern, distinctive, artsy house on large lot! This wonderfully unique home is approximately 2,000 square feet and has beautiful custom woodwork and a modern, vibrant decor. Originally constructed as a horse barn, it was sophisticatedly renovated in 2002 and is a must-see for those families searching for something unique, artsy and energy efficient (4 star plus) in Anchorage. Downstairs is a large bedroom and full bathroom that can also be used as a study or living room; new custom insulating blinds allow for negotiating our ever-changing light that shines through the five large windows. The downstairs is heated by a gas stove, and includes an entrance opening to the backyard garden. The attached garage has a brand new insulated door and can double as a heated workshop. Upstairs, high ceilings and large windows (south and west facing) allow passive heating and lots of great views of the mountains and inlet. Upstairs is heated with both forced air and a small wood stove. The open floor plan allows the dining room to seamlessly open into the large kitchen (with energy efficient fridge/freezer and open roughhewn shelves) and living area. A custom wood loft is accessed by a stunning roughhewn staircase makes for a perfect TV room or work area. There are two bedrooms upstairs with new, insulating and blackout shades and with large closets. The laundry closet is also located is upstairs.
Outside, a large garden with apple trees, raised beds and berry bushes have been maintained by a moose-proof electric fence. There are also many terraced flower beds and landscaping. The house has two decks, and a hot tub, so you can relax and watch the sun set over Cook Inlet. Outbuildings include a chicken house (protected by an electric fence), a greenhouse, and a second detached garage/workshop with electricity and natural gas. The house is served by a septic tank, and has great tasting, and quickly-recovering well water. The house and gardens are surrounded by woods.
The neighborhood is quiet, with visits by moose, brown and black bears and lynx. A close walk is the Rabbit Creek municipal park land. Schools are Bear Valley Elementary, Goldenview Middle School and South High School. The Seward Highway is close for efficient commuting, and for bicycle commuting, there are lots of access to bike paths on DeArmoun and Elmore.
