Property Description
To reach the property, you'll cross a 46-inch-wide & 600-foot-long footbridge along the Alaska Railroad train trestle that spans the Nenana River. In the summer, the footbridge accommodates ATV use, serving as the primary access to the town of Ferry during the summer months. In the winter, the Nenena River freezes sufficiently to enable snow machine and vehicle crossings, providing residents with an opportunity to transport larger items. Once across, it's a 3-mile ATV ride along a public 60-foot-wide gravel easement that runs parallel to the Nenana River and the railroad tracks.
Parking: The parcel also features a 50' x 36' parking allotment on the west side of the Nenana River (highway side), managed by FC Corp with no annual fees. Equipped with power and with the help of modern technology, you can conveniently keep your vehicle plugged in during the cold winter months and start it from the comfort of your cabin.
The Cabin:
One challenge of living remotely is furnishing the cabin. With access limited to trails, transporting large furniture and appliances can be tough. Fortunately, this cabin comes completely furnished, with most items--including the sofa and mattresses--being new. The sweat equity has already been invested!
At the end of the 3 mile easement, you'll find a two-story cabin featuring upper and lower wrap-around decks that offer breathtaking panoramic views of the Northern Lights in winter and on clear days and the magnificent Alaska Range year-round.
Downstairs:
- Kitchen: Enjoy a fully equipped kitchen featuring modern appliances, including a dishwasher, refrigerator, oven, and microwave.
- Bathroom: The full downstairs bathroom is designed with a stand-up shower, bathtub, vanity, and toilet.
- Living Room: The cozy downstairs living room features a sectional couch, recliner, and a 70" flat-screen smart TV, setting the cozy atmosphere for relaxing family nights. Gather around the wood stove for a Netflix & chill streaming experience amidst the serene call of the wild! A modern WiFi compatible Toyo heater ensures a comfortable temperature even during the coldest Alaskan nights.
Upstairs:
- Master Bedroom: Upstairs you'll discover the main bedroom, featuring a queen-sized mattress and frame, a flat-screen TV, closet space, and a door leading to the upper balcony. This balcony offers breathtaking views of the Northern Lights in winter with the stunning Alaska Range in the distance.
- Bedroom #2: Furnished with a full-sized mattress.
- Bedroom #3: Furnished with a queen-sized mattress with access to the upper balcony, overlooking the front lawn and the trail entrance.
- Laundry Room: Conveniently located in the upstairs corridor between the main bedroom and the children's rooms, the laundry room is equipped with a washer and dryer, along with storage space in the hallway closets.
Subsistence Living and Hunting Right at Your Doorstep
This property is an outdoor enthusiast's dream, with frequent visits from bull moose and opportunities to observe mother moose and their calves grazing in the summer. On the east side of the lot, beavers diligently build their lodges, while a keen eye may spot a lynx or, if you're lucky, a wolverine. Wolf tracks can often be seen, and their howls can be heard echoing in the distance. This haven is rich with wildlife and must be treated with respect, as grizzly bears have been spotted nearby.
The spacious 22-acre parcel is rich in firewood, with ATV and snow machine trails weaving through the property for easy transportation of firewood and game back to the cabin.
Endless Outdoor Activities
With Denali National Park just a 30-minute drive down the Parks Highway, outdoor recreational activities are endless! Properties in this location at such value are incredibly RARE!
Engage in sheep and caribou hunting in the Denali Preserve, or fish for arctic grayling in the Nenana River and its tributaries. Chelatna Lake is home to northern pike, rainbow trout, Pacific salmon, and lake trout, providing ample fishing opportunities.
Birdwatchers will enjoy observing the majestic swans that return each spring to nest in nearby ponds. Migratory birds such as snow geese, Canada geese, and sandhill cranes pass through, while owls hoot and snowshoe hares bounce through the surrounding woods. In the fall, spruce grouse hunting is available right on your property.
If foraging is your passion, the nearby woods are abundant with mushrooms and lingonberries in the fall, and secret spots for blueberry and raspberry picking can be found close by.
A Year-Round Haven
This property is the perfect setting for a quintessential Alaskan getaway with family, a hunting trip with friends, or a year-round homestead for those wishing to escape the daily grind while staying connected to modern technology.
A Unique Legacy
The owner and cabin were featured on Season 2 of Railroad Alaska, adding a unique touch to this already remarkable property. This is the real deal, offering a genuine Alaskan experience that can be streamed internationally!
