Description

This unique East Talkeetna property spans 0.46 acres across two contiguous lots, offering flexibility for establishing your family residence, creating a seasonal retreat, or generating rental income just minutes from vibrant Downtown Talkeetna. Whether you're envisioning a full-time home, weekend getaway, short-term rental opportunity, or long-term investment, the generous space, character, and prime location deliver outstanding versatility in one of Alaska's most beloved communities. The 1,511 sq ft home features a bedroom and a bathroom on the main level, highlighted by beautiful log wood accents and brickwork on the arched living room doorway that create warmth and character throughout. The main-floor bedroom offers a charming bay window, while the bathroom includes a relaxing soaker tub. The kitchen showcases vaulted ceilings and skylights that fill the space with natural light, creating an inviting atmosphere for everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs, you'll find a second-floor bedroom with a separate sitting area and built-in shelving for your personal library, along with an office/flex space and a half bath. It is ideal for a private retreat, guest quarters, or a comfortable work-from-home setup. Step outside onto the balcony - the perfect place to enjoy fresh air and take in Northern Lights views year-round. Heating is well suited for Alaska living, with two oil Toyo Monitor heaters complemented by a Blaze King wood stove that provides a reliable backup heat source. The home also includes a full-size unfinished basement offering excellent storage and future potential, complete with a washer and dryer and plumbing already in place for a possible additional half bath. The surrounding yard feels like a whimsical secret garden, offering serene privacy, mature greenery, and inviting outdoor charm. Additional exterior storage includes two sheds and a solid dry cabin. A standout feature is the impressive 740 sq ft wood and metal shop built on a slab foundation, complete with an in-floor pit and a setup ready to be finished for in-floor heat. Designed for versatility, it can easily function as a garage accommodating cars, trucks, RV, or heavy equipment, or serve as a dedicated workspace ideal for a mechanical enthusiast. Electricity, city water & sewer currently service the home, and the same utilities are available for connection to the additional lot. Located just a 5-minute walk to the airport and a 10-minute walk (or quick bike ride) to Downtown Talkeetna, the property provides convenient access to the Talkeetna River, boat launch, train depot, and extensive year-round trails for hiking, skiing, ATV riding, and snowmachining. The property benefits from year-round road maintenance, public transit access, and its location within the fire and emergency service district. It is close to the elementary school and post office, convenience store, and restaurants; approximately 4 miles from a gas station, 10 miles from the local medical clinic, and 14 miles to a grocery store. Numerous lakes located within approximately 2 miles of the property create a true summer haven for paddle boarding and kayaking. This listing offers both lots for purchase together. There are additional listings available by the same owner, including these two lots combined with two adjacent vacant lots offered together as four lots, as well as two separate vacant lots that may be purchased individually or together.
