Midnight Sun Retreat - Close to Trails, Shopping

This home is a sunlit retreat with beautiful furnishings and decor. Enjoy the attention to detail and comfort in this modern duplex-style home, professionally cleaned before your arrival!

Ideally located in a quiet neighborhood in Southeast Anchorage, it is a 3-minute drive from trails, grocery stores, shopping, and restaurants.

The kitchen is stocked with everything you'll need to cook/bake. Enjoy coffee or meals in the quiet, fully-fenced backyard. Perfect for couples, families, or groups.

* Thoughtfully Prepared for Your Arrival*
* Professionally Cleaned Between Guests*

When entering the home (lower level), you will find a cozy living space with large windows that let in natural light, a well-appointed kitchen, a charming dining area with sliding doors leading to the backyard, and a convenient half bathroom with a full-sized washer and dryer.

The fully equipped, upgraded kitchen is perfect for groups, couples, families, and fishing enthusiasts. It comes stocked with bakeware, cookware, and an array of dishes to ensure you have everything you need to prepare your meals should you choose to do so!

The cozy living area has comfortable furniture and light from the two picture windows and sliding doors, all of which offer views of the peaceful, fully-fenced back yard. We also provide an outdoor table and chairs to enjoy your favorite beverage or meal during the warmer months.

Stay connected with high-speed wifi and two smart TVs with streaming and local stations via a digital antenna. Whether you're lounging in the living room or relaxing in the primary bedroom, you can easily log in to your favorite streaming channel and enjoy your favorite shows.

All three bedrooms are upstairs, with a full bathroom stocked with fluffy towels and shower necessities. The primary bedroom has a convenient door leading directly to the bathroom. You'll find blackout blinds in each bedroom, perfect for those long Alaskan summer days!

Families are welcomed with toddler dishes, a pack-n-play crib, and a high chair.

A PERFECT LOCATION
With keyless entry, your arrival is a breeze, day or night. It's nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac near a lower hillside, this home has a fully fenced back yard featuring a small deck, table and chairs, spruce and birch trees, and a few raspberry bushes. It is a zero-lot-line home, styled as a duplex, and the neighbors, who have called this place home for 20+ years, are extremely quiet. Although the walls are mostly soundproof, we ask that if you and your guests are not the quiet and respectable types, reconsider this home or agree to be respectful and considerate during your stay.

**Explore Nearby Trails**

This home is ideally situated in Anchorage. You can access local trailheads within minutes, such as Abbott Loop Community Park Trailhead and the beautiful 4000-acre preserved area. These well-maintained trails offer delightful opportunities for walking, biking, or cross-country skiing, and you might even catch a glimpse of local wildlife. It's a slice of wilderness that feels worlds away from Anchorage.

**Convenience!**

This home sits just 2-3 minutes from local shopping hubs including Fred Meyer, the Dimond Mall, Carrs/Safeway, along with a variety of restaurants, the Alaska Zoo, the Anchorage Golf Course, Hilltop Ski Area, and horseback riding.

Cozy Home Away from Home
I enjoyed a wonderful stay at this property. I was visiting Anchorage to watch my son in an athletic competition. We had two adults in our party and the home was perfect for us (but certainly could have accommodated more people). The home was perfectly clean and organized. It had everything we needed and more. The neighborhood was quiet and ideally located for our activities. I would not hesitate to rent this home again. Lynette was wonderful to work with. An ideal host!
