Perhaps the loveliest home in Goldenview Park. And for a host of reasons.

People like Goldenview for its being an outstanding combination of feeling like one lives in Alaska, with the convenience of a neighborhood. Lots here are larger than many traditional Anchorage subdivisions, with wider fronts that accommodate larger homes with three-car garages. A network of community greenbelts meanders through the lots, increasing privacy while maintaining a healthy sense of community. Streets are paved and many have bike paths. Utility lines are underground. The neighborhood enjoys good sun exposure with lovely peaceful views of the surrounding Chugach Mountains, Cook Inlet and the majestic Alaska Range.

Capping the neighborhood benefits are its proximity to employment centers in the Anchorage downtown and midtown areas, and complete malls, big-box stores and recreational centers in South Anchorage. For the skiers, Alyeska Resort is a short ride to the south.

Schools serving this area and all of Goldenview Park evidence some of the highest test scores in the Anchorage School District. In sports and many extracurricular activities many of the students excel and dominate.

Not all homes and lots are alike in Goldenview Park. This home in particular represents an unusual opportunity to own the "best of the best". It abuts a community greenbelt which includes the vacant lot next door which has been purchased by the Homeowners Association to create the community park you see in the pictures and virtual tour. As you can see, it's fully-equipped and very lovingly used by residents and their kids who appreciate the play structures there.

The builder was Colony Builders, one of Anchorage's most respected names in fine home construction. This home meets and exceeds their normally exacting standards. Maple cabinetry gleams. A curved staircase provides elegance. Hardwood laminate flooring is in all the places like the kitchen where one would want an easy to care for surface. This home has gridded windows, high ceilings and light flooding in from every direction. There's little feeling of the presence of neighbors, owing to the park next door, and the fact of the garage being adjacent to the home on the other side. There is an outstanding sense of design throughout this home. It's a workable floor plan in the form most sought: four bedrooms including an elegant master suite, all upstairs. Main living areas including kitchen, family room, formal dining and office or music room on the ground level. The utility room is conveniently located on the to and from the garage.

Speaking of garage, there's plenty of room for storage, cars, work space and whatever. It's very tall, and there's additional storage in crawl space areas.

This home is tastefully landscaped and includes a very large deck and a kid play structure. There's also a separately-fenced dog run accessible from the garage and covered with gravel for easy maintenance.

An outstanding value, take action quickly because homes of this quality in this price range have very short marketing times.
