Let your Alaskan dreams come true! This is a beautiful property on the Seward Highway with a small, clearwater stream running in the backyard! It's an ideal location, central to the greater Seward region! PERFECT commercial location for a business. Every vehicle that comes to Seward has to pass by your sign! Only 4 miles to town, the grocery store is 5 minutes, harbor is 6, prison and shipyard 8 minutes and just a couple miles in any direction to world class trails and wilderness!
The cabin is used as a seasonal, dry cabin. The property was built up with gravel approx 30 years ago and it is not in the flood way. It has a powerful gas stove, but it would need to be skirted to stand up to Alaska winter. That said, owners have enjoyed it for the past 3 years as a rustic cabin. This property could be used for ANYTHING. The only limit is your imagination! Ideal spot for cabin rentals, mechanic garage, storage yard, construction company, equipment rental etc! Just needs a motivated new owner with vision and a passion for coastal Alaska! Seward is a gem of a growing, thriving community that needs all the help it can get to continue to grow and blossom as it has been doing over the past 20 years! If you build it- THEY WILL COME!!
195k includes the original, rustic cabin and the 1.7 acre parcel and a connex container of your choice. A wood stove and insulated piping come with the purchase also. Also available is a brand new 12x24 cabin shell (seen in pics), a 40' converted bus, approximately $10k in materials bought for the property, there's 2 additional Connexes, a Bigfoot 2500 truck camper, a 2010 Case 580 fully loaded with extenda-hoe, a 30k equipment trailer, dually pickup and other smaller items. Owner selling for medical reasons, but is not a distress sale.
Financing options ARE out there. It's up to you to call banks and lending institutions and see what you qualify for. Alaska USA, for example will finance 70% of the property as a recreational loan. Owner would consider leasing or lease to own options or an owner finance with 40% down payment. That said, owner will entertain any business plan & vision. If you can make the property successful- he's interested to talk! Preference would be a cash sale with the other items as well. Give him a call and see what's possible!
There is a 30' well on the property which is used for seasonal water. It is located approx 50' from an old crib septic, so they don't currently drink the water but use it for washing. It's not been tested and maybe it's potable? There is another well drilled down 40' but it is not through the bedrock. Owner thought he would hit water sooner and reached his budget and stopped. Driller thinks another 20' to 40' would have beautiful water. Driller can extend the well. It costs approx $50/foot. The cabin has 100 amp service with a 220 welding outlet inside, a 30 amp RV outlet outside, a dryer connected inside and a washer on the porch. It has everything for summertime enjoyment or to get you started on your dreams!
Property has two drive ways to make a convenient pull through. This property has lots of room to park campers and boats. Easy access on and off.
