Ready to Remodel this into your dream cabin? Tucked away on 5.29 private acres, this authentic Scandinavian scribed log cabin offers the kind of Alaska experience that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Surrounded by trees, open space, and endless possibilities, this property combines the character of handcrafted log construction with the opportunity to create something truly special. Built in 2000, the 1,326-square-foot cabin sits on a generous Rural Estate parcel and is ready for its next chapter. Much of the preparation work has already been completed, allowing the next owner to focus on transforming the space into a private residence, recreational retreat, or investment property tailored to their goals. One of the property's most unique features is the nearly completed all-cedar sauna building. Thoughtfully designed with cedar finishes, dedicated changing space, insulated construction, passive fresh-air intake, and mechanical ventilation, the structure is well on its way to becoming a standout amenity that would be costly to recreate today. The property already benefits from electrical service, septic infrastructure, a water holding system, heating oil storage, and two outbuildings, giving future owners a substantial head start on development and improvement plans. With over five acres of usable land, there is room to spread out, enjoy recreational activities, create additional improvements, store equipment, or simply enjoy the privacy and freedom that acreage provides. A large cleared area offers flexibility for vehicles, campers, project staging, or future site enhancements. Whether your vision involves restoring a distinctive Alaska cabin, creating a destination-style retreat, building long-term equity through renovation, or simply owning a unique piece of Interior Alaska, opportunities like this are increasingly rare. THIS IS A FIXER UPPER AND PRICED AS-IS
