About This Home

MOTIVATED SELLER! Well-maintained ranch-style home offering a thoughtful layout and luxurious touches...not your average builder grade home.Featuring 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, this home sits on nearly a full acre. The oversized 3-car garage (837 sq ft with 27.5 ft depth) provides plenty of space for vehicles + toys, storage, and all your Alaskan gear.It gets better inside. Walking into a large, tiled entry way with a built-in bench and large coat closet. No need to do the front door shuffle or take turns walking in. Here you'll find a bright, open layout with 9-foot ceilings throughout. A large room off to the left that could be a formal dining, office or whatever makes your heart content. This kitchen not only has plenty of cabinet space, it also features a VERY nice walk-in pantry with butcher block counter top, built-in shelving and outlets for convenience. Upgraded cabinetry, and quartz countertops is also a plus. The main living area is centered around a stacked stone gas fireplace with shiplap accents, a built-in entertainment space and tray ceiling. The laundry room includes a custom butcher block folding shelf. The spacious primary suite offers a tiled walk-in shower with dual shower heads (rain & handheld) and separate soaking tub. Additional features in this home include recessed lighting, all black fixtures and no bi-fold doors. Out back you can enjoy the outdoors under a covered and vaulted Trex back deck (14x10) along with a tongue-and-groove front deck--perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The paved driveway, paved neighborhood streets, and generous lot with room for a future shop add even more long-term value. Well cared for by its original owner and built in 2022, this home offers modern finishes without the wait of new construction.
