Property Description
Enjoy views of Bear Mountain and the surrounding landscape from the front of the home, while appreciating the quality and care invested throughout. Recently sanded and sealed logs, a durable metal roof, and a newer furnace provide lasting comfort and peace of mind. Outside, the beautifully landscaped grounds feature berry gardens, colorful flowers, an apple tree, thoughtfully placed sitting areas, a greenhouse, and a storage shed. The fenced backyard offers a tranquil retreat, bordered by mature woods for added privacy, and includes a sun-filled garden area that has previously supported abundant vegetable growing.
Private and serene, yet conveniently located approximately one mile from the grocery store, post office, and highway access, this property offers an ideal balance of seclusion and everyday convenience, with an easy commute to JBER and Anchorage.
A standout feature is the impressive detached shop, offering approximately 2,100 square feet in total, including 1,700+ square feet of heated workspace. Designed for versatility, the shop has been used as a woodworking studio, creative space, and garage, with additional storage in the rear. It is equipped with water, electricity, heat, a toilet, stereo wiring with built-in speakers, and a comprehensive package of woodworking machinery and tools that may be negotiable. The shop also features a newer heating system (approximately 5 years old), a roof replaced just 2 years ago, and framing designed to accommodate a taller garage door, providing flexibility for a wide range of uses.
The property is also equipped with a Vivint security and fire monitoring system serving both the home and shop, including alerts to the house when the shop door is opened.
Adding to the home's unique character is its connection to renowned master woodworker D. Lowell Zercher, whose functional art and large-scale installations can be found throughout Anchorage. His artistic influence is evident throughout the property, where custom woodwork and thoughtful design elevate everyday living.
A new septic tank was added 5 years ago, and the property benefits from an approved five-bedroom COSA, offering flexibility for future expansion and use.
Rarely does a property combine artistic heritage, handcrafted beauty, privacy, and practical functionality in such a seamless and inviting way.
