Tucked away on wooded acreage at the south end of Anchorage, this Potter retreat is a true Alaskan log home with authentic Alaskana character: hand-set timbers, a priceless view, and the kind of quiet you usually have to drive hours out of town to find. The home sits on 1.4 acres between the mountains and the water, with sweeping southwest views of Turnagain Arm and the Kenai Mountains directly above Potter Marsh. It's an ideal spot for morning coffee, wildlife watching, or a quiet moment to decompress after a long shift. This four-bedroom home also includes an office/den that offers flexible space and can serve as an optional fifth bedroom. Recent updates include a brand-new refrigerator, new twin mattresses, and fresh carpet in two of the bedrooms. You'll also have updated Wi-Fi, a smart TV, on-site laundry, and parking, so you get the log-home character with comfortable, move-in-ready conveniences. You're right next to the Seward Highway, so the whole Kenai Peninsula is an easy weekend drive. You're still inside Anchorage, though, so daily life stays simple: Grocery stores: about 9 minutes Restaurants: within 10 minutes Hospitals: about 15 minutes Drive times from the door: Downtown Anchorage: about 20 minutes Midtown Anchorage: about 10 minutes U-Med District (UAA, Providence, ANMC, Alaska Regional): about 15 minutes Ted Stevens International Airport: about 15 minutes Girdwood and Alyeska Ski Resort: about 30 minutes Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center: about 40 minutes Portage Glacier and Whittier: about 50 minutes Seward: about 2 hours This is a good fit for traveling professionals transitioning from one location to another on a mid-term assignment who want a peaceful home base with real Alaska right outside the door and every utility covered.
