Property details
About 26200 W Sharen Dr
Drive to the end of the road, fire up the wood stove (or the whole-house boiler with radiant floor heat!), and settle in with views of Denali from your bedroom window. This barely-off-grid home is just a short distance off the Parks Highway in Willow, pn two flat, dry, highly usable lots, with a one-car garage. Built in 2013, it's been lived in both full-time and used as a weekend getaway, and is great for both. There's an inverter and batteries that can power the house for multiple days after a charge from the generator, and the system is solar-ready if you want to install panels in the future. With a propane fridge, washer, and range, as well as a drilled well and documented septic, this Alaskan dream is rustic and practical at the same time. It's just an hour and a half from Anchorage, and a few hundred yards in two directions from the current end of Borough road maintenance. It's got both Denali and Talkeetna views and access to miles of winter trails in all directions. Much of the land is cleared, with forest and fencing along the boundary to maintain privacy but plenty of space to play and enjoy the views all around the house.
