29601 Glenn Highway

Many homes in Alaska have a view - but not a view like this. Add highway access AND an airstrip to taxi onto... and you're living the Alaskan dream. From your perch high up the hillside from the state-maintained Glenn Highway, you can see 15 miles up the Matanuska Glacier, all the way to the high peaks of the central Chugach.This is an owner-builder home, built by a professional builder to modern residential standards, with PURs recorded and everything meticulously maintained. Lightly used and well-care for, it lives like a brand-new home. The layout is designed to maximize views of the mountains and Glacier from every room, from the kitchen (possibly the best view from the sink that you'll ever find) to the soaking tub in the primary bathroom. Downstairs, there's a living room, kitchen, and primary suite, with two additional bedrooms upstairs. From the back deck you'll feel like you're practically standing on the Matanuska Glacier (but you'll be warmer!). A large two-car shop/garage outside has plenty of room for work, toys, or parking, and the standing-height basement is unfinished but heated, with easy access from a large door outside, providing LOTS of storage. The house fronts directly on a private airstrip, which is shared by several homes, along with the private driveway. Need more buildings? - a hangar, more shop space, or another dwelling? There's more space to build along the airstrip and driveway. Concerned about power outages? No problem; the home is wired for a standby generator.

This is a move-in ready, no worries, hassle-free home - a rare find in the rural parts of our great state. It's an hour's drive to downtown Palmer, and two hours to Anchorage International Airport, with hourly nonstops to Seattle and daily nonstops to most major US hubs. Fuel oil is delivered and the highway is maintained all year - it's hard to imagine a better combination of practical convenience, and living at the edge of the wilderness.
