Property Description
Live free & wild in the unique, adventurous & remote town of Port Protection! This 1.29 acre property offers a new life in an Alaskan octagonal cabin! Rustic & charming with approx. 1800sf, 3BD, 1BA, 2-3 stories & a greenhouse on top, the cabin continues to be renovated with lots of improvements including a new off-grid power system & a boat! With no property tax & tons of extras, this is value! Open & light-filled, this cabin & property have received many new updates in the past year. It has a new kitchen & bathroom with hot running water, a washer, dryer & new counters. The plumbing has all been redone with pex lines. A new Blaze King Princess model woodstove awaits you & the cabin comes furnished & ready with a large supply of fire bricks. This town is off-grid, and the cabin comes with a brand new power system including a 12KW Kohler generator & inverter system with 8 new gel batteries, a 2000W gas Honda generator & twelve new 360W solar panels. The cabin still needs work, but a lot has been done for you and it even comes with a great set of electric woodworking tools: a shop saw, table saw etc!
The property is open, bright & perfect for gardening with lots of berry bushes & the community garden is only a short walk away if you want more space. Heated by a woodstove with 6"insulated pipe, the cabin makes for an efficient as well comfortable & peaceful escape. The cabin is on city water. It has a running toilet, & a homemade septic system. The property has city water (which happens to be spring water!). Landline phones & satellite internet are available in this area & the town also has fire hydrants throughout.
Create your amazing new Alaskan life right here in a fascinating village! Great neighbors are not to close, but not too far if needed.
Lots of extras come with the home to make life more comfortable: there is a new, top model king size Sleep Number bed with movable sections, extra sheets & foot warmer, an extra 2 queens & a single bed with bedding, a huge stainless refrigerator/freezer, a new 60 inch chest freezer and a sectional 3 piece microfiber couch with three tip out lounges. A lot of good lumber is included; four 20ft long 6x6 pressure treated beams, six 12ft 6x6 pt beams & lots of 2x4 & 2x6s!
Updates have continued and now the cabin comes with even more! Most exciting is an 18' pontoon boat with a 50hp Mercury outboard. It has new ¾" marine plywood with landing ramps. Added to this are 3 new shrimp pots to get your subsistence adventures started. Then at home is a brand new Cabela's meat grinder for your subsistence catch. A brand new Crawler (a motorized wheelbarrow) makes transporting supplies even easier, and you can relax at the end of the day with a TV or two (a 72" smart TV & another 60" TV is included). 6 new windows are also on site.
Port Protection is a fascinating little town with an amazing lifestyle - check out the TV series called "Life Below Zero, Port Protection." And with no property taxes you can truly live more freely here! The town is accessible by boat or plane & connected by forest boardwalks once you get there.
Please note: This is a very remote location, not easy to travel to & this lifestyle is not suitable for everyone. It takes time to get in & out of Port Protection during winter as flights are weather dependent. Boating, DIY & remote living experience are essential here. But if you want to get away from it all & recreate your lifestyle, Port Protection is literally perfect!
