A diamond in the rough . . . here is a homesteader's dream. Beautiful 5 bedroom 3 bath home on five acres enveloped with solitude, peace, and quiet. Gu-1 zoned for opportunities for farming, livestock, chickens, gardening, etc. So much potential for this lovely home. As you step through the front door, you are welcomed with a large living room area; adjacent to it is a cheery sun room with large south facing windows welcoming the sun! A large spacious kitchen with ample counter space offers a door leading to a large deck for sitting out warming in the sun or viewing the auroras. On this same floor is a utility room with a mother-law apartment. A Blaze King, grandfathered in and EPA approved, heats the home along with hot water baseboard. Upstairs are the additional four bedrooms. Used previously as a family home and then a successful Air BnB, this home just needs some foundational work (see attached documents) to make it right. There are three pads for potential construction: main pad in front and to the right of the house, the upper driveway behind the well shed leads back to a pad where the barn used to be, and the lower driveway, just before the open field, has a pad for building cabins and it has its electric pole separate from the electric pole for the main house.

Recommendations are to remove the well shed entirely, replace the temporary water line with a permanent one, cap the artesian overflow, and cover the wellhead with a length of corrugated and insulated culvert. This should be done before any adjustments are made to the helical piers for current or future leveling. Tom of Alaska Drilling has quoted me $2,500 for coming mid-June to do the well work but that does not include the shed removal.
