5870 Alpine Woods Drive, Anchorage, Alaska 99516

Property Description

Beyond private iron gates, nearly 2.5 acres of mature wooded grounds surround a residence that brings together grand architecture, beautifully coordinated interiors, and the freedom of estate living, all within Anchorage. This distinctive lower-hillside setting offers secluded privacy and Chugach Mountain views while keeping schools, shopping, and recreation conveniently close. Spanning 7,974 sqft , the 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath residence balances impressive scale with inviting warmth. Custom double entry doors, soaring 20-foot ceilings, expansive windows, and a dramatic catwalk staircase establish its architectural presence. Three substantial living areas provide space for gracious entertaining and quiet retreat, while custom cabinetry, fitted closets, built-in dressers, and a two-person office reflect the home's thoughtful craftsmanship. Extensively renovated throughout the current owners' tenure, the residence received an approximately $350,000 interior refresh in 2026. Wide-plank white oak flooring, wool carpeting, distinctive lighting, and refined finishes complement its generous proportions. The double-island kitchen is equally suited to leisurely mornings and memorable evenings with guests. Quartz and granite surfaces frame a thoughtfully appointed workspace featuring a Miele double refrigerator concealed within armoire-style cabinetry, a Miele oven, built-in microwave, and built-in coffee system, along with a six-burner range and hood. Extensive cabinetry and a generous walk-in pantry provide ample storage, while a fireplace brings warmth to the adjoining kitchen and dining space. Remodeled in 2022, the primary suite offers an oversized shower, heated bathroom and shower floors, a generous dressing area with an island, private laundry, and air conditioning, creating a comfortable retreat within the residence. The estate is available substantially furnished through a separate agreement. Much of the furniture was custom designed, built, or specifically selected for the home's architecture and scale, offering buyers the opportunity to acquire beautifully composed interiors without beginning an extensive design, commissioning, and sourcing process. Outdoors, a gazebo with natural burlwood posts and a wood-burning fireplace creates a memorable setting for gathering. The expansive grounds and custom barn extend the luxury of the estate beyond the residence, offering the freedom to create a setting around your own passions. Whether reimagined as a personal creative retreat, a home for treasured collections, or a base for Alaska adventures, the barn brings possibilities that evolve with its owner. For those with equestrian interests, existing paddocks and a lighted riding arena add another dimension to its versatility. A heated three-car garage with dedicated gear lockers, ample parking for an RV, boat, and trailers, and two backup generators support both everyday comfort and an active Alaska lifestyle. An uncommon opportunity to enjoy acreage, privacy, and a thoughtfully appointed luxury residence without sacrificing the conveniences of Anchorage. Alternative barn uses may require adaptations and approvals.
