Property Description

This home is currently rented.  Inquiries regarding this property will go unanswered until such time as the tenant gives notice to leave.

Appointment & contact info:  Please do a drive-by of the home to verify the commute, style of home, access and location meet with your approval before scheduling an appointment!   After your drive-by, appointments can generally be made with reasonable advance notice (minimum of 1 bu iness day-before) for Sunday - Friday.

Please note that there is an extensive virtual tour & other photos available for review if you hit the "virtual tour" link to the right of the photo above. 

Basic Description: This is a charming 1940's era bungalow-style home which was later moved to this location, that has been HUGELY remodeled and energy-upgraded so you get the benefits of modern styling & energy efficiency while enjoying characteristics rarely seen these days.   This home is located just off of close-in Chena Ridge road, giving you all the rural feel, with none of the time-consuming commute! Sitting on almost 7 end-of-road acres, you'll enjoy the privacy. 

Small and cozy (less $$ to heat!) yet it radiates light with numerous recently installed vinyl windows, original-to-the-structure pine floors throughout dining & livingroom & 2nd bedroom, completely remodeled kitchen, large rear arctic entry/laundry-utility room good for "gear".  Although set up for the tenant's own stack washer/dryer, a full-size side-by side should also fit.
 
Lease Period:  Ending in June or July of the following summer.  Please note that the owner currently does plan to have this home be a rental for the next few years, however in the state of Alaska, residential leases are only valid (legal) for 1 year, so if you are looking for longer-term rental situation, this home is an excellent candidate.

Rent: $1225/month + tenant pays all utilities & driveway plowing --which leads us to....average utility costs--->

Avg Utility Costs:

Fuel: This home is heated by a compact and efficient Toyotomi (toyo) digital space heater, known for their miserly fuel consumption.   The fuel usage history for this home is *UNDER 41gallons/month average* (for reference this is approximately 1/3 to 1/2 of "normal" heating bills.)   PLUS there is the recently installed Premium Quality Jotul Enamel woodstove, so you can reduce your fill bills by using the woodstove if you wish.  For those not local, current fuel rates are about $3.60+ (ish)/gallon (going up fast).  Fuel payments are handled this way: projected fuel cost will be calculated, the owner hassles with fill ups, not you and we collect an even monthly projected amount to make budgeting easier, and will settle up any actual differences apx. once every 6 months.  You only pay for the fuel you use!

Electric:  The current (last 2 years) average electric bills are on order and will be available shortly.

Water/Sewer: Sewer is private (periodic seasonal pumping will be done by owner), and the water is a water holding tank.  Delivered water costs 8-9 center per gallon delivered, typically with a 900 gallon minimum.    If you are set up to haul it yourself, it can cost as little as 1.5 cents/gallon. Costs will vary based on your own personal water use habits & delivery method, but 1000-1500g/month is a conservative average for those who have well developed water-conservation habits.

Trash:  No charge/No pickup:  You haul your own to the local transfer site located on Chena Pump road.

Road Access: Please note that King Arthur Way is not formally maintained by any road service area or neighborhood coalition.  Therefore, depending on how much & how recently it has snowed, you may require 4-wheel drive and/or chains to safely enter & exit all the way down King Arthur Way where this home is located (the driveway is actually practically flat).

Data/TV Connection Information: The owner had access to high speed internet through DSL phone-based broadband is also available from ACS.  TV reception may be limited due to this home's location, tenant is encouraged to verify available service prior to scheduling an appointment.

Deposit(s):  Deposits = 1 month's rent, plus $400 deposit per approved pet (if any)  Yes, if there is no damage/issues or repairs, then you get it all back at move-out. 

Pet Details:  Approve-able pets are: up to two dogs with no maximum weight limit.  Also possible are caged birds (max of 2);  [Note that all birds+fish = 1 "pet" for deposit purposes];  fish with a limitation of 40g on tank size.  *THERE ARE NO CATS ALLOWED IN THIS PROPERTY* Regarding dogs: the owner does, however, prohibit certain breeds such as akita, chow, doberman, pitbull and wolf hybrids or mixes of these.  Please do NOT call to inquire about an exception to these guidelines if you have other/additional pets.

Credit/Background Checks:  Credit & Background check will be run on applicants & residents at a cost per adult of $48.50 ($68.00 for any applicants who are married with a joint credit history).  Although we do check credit, we do not necessarily require "perfect" credit if there are other compensating factors and good reasons for some small or moderate past credit record “issues”.

There is NO smoking allowed anywhere on this property by residents or their visitors/guests.
