There is something unmistakably special about a true Alaskan log home—and this one captures it beautifully. Built with quality Sandy Jamieson log craftsmanship and lovingly maintained through the years, this home combines the warmth and character of hand-scribed Alaskan logs with a setting that makes you want to slow down and stay awhile. From the moment you step inside, the wood stove, raised ceilings, natural wood, and large windows create a warm and inviting gathering place for family and friends. The main level is designed around an open kitchen, dining, and living space, with a modern wood stove at its heart. The kitchen offers generous cabinet and counter space, stainless steel appliances, and a functional island. A beautifully preserved 1933 enamel wood cook stove adds a wonderful touch of history and Alaskan character (it still works!) Large triple-pane windows bring in beautiful natural light and frame the landscape outside. Step onto the deck and take in the view—WOW! The Tanana River below, and, on clear days, the Alaska Range beyond are yet other Alaskan sights to take in. Mature trees, thoughtfully landscaped grounds, a newly established lawn, and just over an acre of property create a private, picture-perfect setting for any homeowner. When the ice fog and frigid temps are down low, this home benefits from being higher up on the ridge: an inversion provides clearer skies and warmer temps, a benefit we all love during the long winter months. This is a home designed for living the Alaska lifestyle. The generous arctic entry has plenty of room for winter boots, coats, skis, hiking gear, and all the equipment that comes with enjoying the outdoors. Outside, there's a family fire pit, woodshed, and an ample supply of cut and stacked firewood ready for cozy evenings around the fire or beside the wood stove. Downstairs, the home continues to offer flexibility. Two bedrooms provide comfortable private space and generous closets. A versatile additional room can serve as an office, playroom, guest space, or potentially a third bedroom. There's a generous bathroom, and a utility area with access to the washer and dryer and additional storage. The radiant floor heating throughout the lower level keeps these spaces warm and cozy. While downstairs, you move into even more flexible space waiting to become whatever your family needs—a home gym, gardening area, reading retreat, art studio, hobby space, or simply a place to spread out and enjoy. And when it's time to get outside, the adventure begins close to home. Walking, hiking, skiing, and access toward the river are all part of the surrounding lifestyle. Out the backdoor, access to walking/hiking trails take you to the river below or up and over the ridge for views of the mountain range and Tanana Flats. Located at the beginning of Rosie Creek Rd., this property offers a coveted combination of privacy, scenery, and convenience—high enough to enjoy the beauty of the river valley while remaining just minutes from Fairbanks. Authentic Alaskan character. A remarkable setting. Beautifully maintained. And ready for a new family to make it their own. This is more than a log home. This is Alaska.
