Anchorage, Alaska--ocean and mountain views, contemporary home on the ocean bluff with privacy. Thirty minutes to Alyeska, out the back door cross-country skiing. (#41916)
Premier, elegant home located on the coast overlooking Turnagain Arm and bucketloads of mountains. Expansive views of the Chugach and Alaska ranges, Turnagain Arm and Cook Inlet. Large lot with space between neighbors. Incredible house for bird watchers (cranes, eagles, swans, geese, ducks, sandpipers), and 30 minutes to Alaska's best downhill skiing at Alyeska. Easy access to great nordic adventures, and fifteen minutes to king salmon fishing. The house matches the scenery. A wide open lower level (kitchen, living room, pantry and restroom) with oak floors, chef's kitchen, grand piano, fireplace, leather furniture and views that make leaving difficult. Upstairs are four bedrooms, a jacuzzi tub, two bathrooms and more stunning views. The back deck overlooks the bluff, has a grill, is frequented by moose and contains a large 8 person hot tub.

The Neighborhood
Located in South Anchorage close to shopping areas, great restaurants and only ten minutes from downtown. Superb bike and running trails are located in the neighborhood, and winter nordic skiing on the beach is dreamlike. Very quiet neighborhood, frequented by walkers and joggers. Three minutes to highway access for Alpine skiers and ten minutes from the airport. From inside the house, you feel alone and it is hard to view the neighbors.

The People
We are a happily married professional couple. Kristin works at a local hospital as an ob/gyn provider and Jim works as a trial lawyer. We have three children, with one away at college. Nick is 19, loves to play hockey and whitewater kayaking. Mackenzie is 14, also very into hockey, travel and enjoying friends. Both Nick and Mackenzie are fluent in Japanese. Diego is two, insane about hockey and semi-fluent in Spanish and English. We love to do things as a family, and aim to cast off limitless smiles. There are no pets in the household due to allergies, but we do entertain friends dogs and have a large fenced in run.
