About 17861 E Chickaloon Road
It's rare that homes of this quality come up in Chickaloon. Add in a 1680 sq ft heated shop/garage, enough sheds and outbuildings for anyone's wood/toys/tools needs, an end-of-the-road location on almost 9 acres, and possible use of the neighboring 750 yard airstrip... it's almost too good to be true. Home is a traditional design with an open living/kitchen area downstairs and 2 BR upstairs. It's a Bylar Construction design with a single builder/owner, and has been maintained with the pride of ownership you'd expect. It's well insulated, with a roof built to withstand heavy snow loads, and aluminum sheeting to protect the sides of the house from water damage if the snow piles up above the porch roof. It's got a brand new oil-fired boiler for central heat and on-demand hot water ($23,000+, rare outside the Enstar service area), a properly designed and documented septic, and a cozy lawn out back that opens up the views to the south. The shop is plumbed for a sink and toilet in the back and has its own gray-water disposal. The well produces 150+ gpm, there are two 500 gallon oil tanks for long-term self-sufficiency, and there's a huge building pad already prepared for your next construction project.
Outside, there's a smokehouse, a cabin from 1938, an old sauna that needs cleaning but should be functional (located near the house), chicken coops, a shed, 2 outhouses, a wood shed, and a disused 50x50 garden space. There's even a shooting range that can be used at 200 yards, 100 yards, and pistol shooting. Got horses? The back section of the garage has a plywood floor which could be removed, with space for two generous horse stalls and water already plumbed in.
This property borders an airstrip (not maintained) that is owned by the Chickaloon Tribe. There is potential to gain access/use of this strip with agreement from the Chief/Council; seller will agree to a due diligence contingency to allow time for buyer to secure this access, if desired.
Palmer is just 30 minutes away, but when you drive up the highway and down Fish Lake Road you'll know you're far from the suburbs. Call an Alaska real estate licensee and set up your showing today!
