I built the current residence and have lived here for nearly 30 years.
A great deal of love, laughter, sweat and tears have gone into the building
and care of this property.
Attached to the main house there is a 26'x44' three car garage w/3 overhead
doors, and a 16'x28'x12' boat storage w/overhead door.
Also on the property is a two-story log cabin (built in 1923) with a
new metal roof (2001); a 26x24x10 Machine Shop with attached 26x14 garage
w/overhead door; a 11x38 woodshed/dozer storage; an additional 26x28 Shop;
two 2-stall sheds (each 36x20) one of which has an attached garage for
small tractor, and etc.
There are also several other buildings on the property currently being
used as a greenhouse, a chicken house, outboard motor sheds, meat house,
storage, etc., etc.
Also, most buildings have additional storage space in attics and outside
storage closets. You will never run out of space to put things on this
property!
The property borders two lakes, one of which is adequate for a float
plane (right in front of the main house)! The lakes have a healthy supply
of Rainbow Trout, as we have been feeding them for years! Moose visit the
Homestead regularly, and Sandhill Cranes nest out back.
An option is available on an additional 80 acres that adjoin this property...with
lakefronts and hills.
This property is ideally situated offering the owner easy access to
the Kenai Peninsula's world renowned salmon fishing holes on the Kenai
and Kasilof Rivers, Ninilchik or Deep Creek, and some of the best halibut
holes in Cook Inlet. And Clam Gulch, well that speaks for itself when talking
about razorback clams...the clammin' simply couldn't be better! Eagles,
moose, an occasional bear, otter, muskrat, beaver and ducks galore come
in and out of the place like nobody's business... this is an Outdoorsman's
Paradise, and the property has been the envy of every Sourdough this side
of Anchorage ever since I can remember. Here you can get away from the
crowds of summer, basking in your very own piece of Heaven on Earth...solice
and serenity that soothes the soul and allows the mind to wander endlessly
amidst wilderness, wildlife, and beauty, yet remains only 20 minutes from
Soldotna's super shopping areas. Row your boat around the lake, toss in
a line, or just sit on the dock and watch the trout jump. The sparrows,
chickadees, woodpeckers and more keep the air filled with song, and the
calm and silence of evening leave you filled with peace and contentment.
This is ONE property that the serious homeowner will keep for a lifetime...I
know, at almost 80 years of age, I'm finding it difficult to move on, but
health dictates that I do...and your good fortune may be close at hand
because of it!
Please, serious inquiries only. Illness forces this sale...
