Property Description

The owner has offered up $3900 in the form of a price reduction to $96,000.  But if that money would be more useful to you as a buyer as a credit to some of what are normally a buyer's costs, then any monies offered over $96,000 will be credited back to buyer at closing!

You know, folks define "luxury" in different ways.  Some think it means lots of money, a zippy computer, a tricked-out TV, others think it means a big house or nifty cars.  Personally, I think one of the last remaining luxuries of the modern age is this:  PRIVACY.  Yep, think about it, how many people can actually go home and enjoy real privacy?  

Well, this quintessential "cabin in the woods" is for those who agree.   On almost 5 high-elevation view acres, this home is not only at the end of a street, its the ONLY home on the street - and surrounded by other larger land parcels too.  Relax on the dazzlingly bright deck and look out over the valley to the mountains beyond, or enjoy yourself while cooking for a few good friends in the fully set-up kitchen complete with under-sink *HOT WATER HEATER and 17 gallon water resevoir* including gravity grey water drainage outdoors.   Dry Cabin?  Not hardly!   This beautifully improved home is a delight for the eyes, spirit and pocketbook...

If you haven't already had a chance, take a look at the virtual tour and see for yourself!ng from the space where your car or truck parks! 

Financing comments:  This property does not have an indoor bathroom or a private septic system, therefore will not qualify for VA/FHA/RD-USDA or other standard conventional & low downpayment government loans.  There are many lenders who regularly loan on this type of property, (which is common here), the most well known being Mt. McKinley Bank who has a long-standing "cabins" loan program.  In fact, this owner easily purchased the home with Mt. McKinley's Cabins "A" program when it was purchased in 2007.   If you have an eye towards ADDING water/septic & bath facilities, then a construction loan may be a good way to do it...  There are also other non-conforming loans that will work if you have excellent credit.  As the owner wishes to be cashed out, it is important to realize that almost all (if not all) of these program will typically require at least 20% downpayment.  Check with your local lender - because as cabins go, this one is dandy and any lender familiar with lending on cabins should be happy to do so!

Drive-By Directions: #1: Chena Ridge, R on Isberg, L on Cripple Creek, go past end of pavement, then Left at "For Sale sign w/arrow" about 0.7 to 0.9 miles after pavement ends.   Note: There is no street sign that says "Strix".  Follow road to end, plenty of turnaround space at end. 

It's easy for pre-qualified buyers to set up a showing appointment with virtually no advance notice.  Just call your REALTOR/Buyer's Representative, the showing instructions for them are available in the MLS. No REALTOR of your own?...just contact Lori at 347-7244, and she will be happy to assist you.
