16315 Kings Way Drive

Sold/closed 2000


This is worth the drive! If you like the feeling of being the lord, master and mistress of all you survey, come out Kings Way Drive to this fine home.

And if you want peace and quiet and your privacy, you will find all of that here. The home is on 2.5 acres and is surrounded by many more acres of undeveloped land.

The owners raised their family here and are the original builders of the home, in 1987. They spared no engineering sophistication. The concrete blocks of the foundation were filled with concrete and dead-headed into the side of the hill and rested on bedrock, for maximum structural stability. Framed with imported 2x6 lumber, cedar sided and with a shake roof, the home has workmanship and quality of materials rarely found even in today's new homes.

To exploit the views there are decks facing out toward Cook Inlet, the Alaska Range and the twinkling lights of Anchorage. One deck off the master runs across in front of the living room. The deck off the formal dining room and kitchen has the hot tub.

This house is fun in many ways. The outdoor hot tub is a great place to hang out, but downstairs there's a pool room and nearby is the spa, with its steam sauna and shower.

A large home, there's 3896 square feet of living area, plus a triple garage. A 372 square foot storage shed is outside. There are three bedrooms plus a study and three full baths.

The hot water system circulates through the home, which means there is never a wait for hot water when you turn on the faucet. The well is very productive, with a 5.7 gallons per minute flow rate. A new septic system is being provided.

As you can see from the pictures, the design of the home is based on great room concepts, with every room very spacious and full of windows. Cathedral ceilings enhance the feeling of open living. Interior decorator amenities include a see-though fireplace between the living and dining rooms and a wood stove in the family room downstairs. There are several skylights to further the feeling of living indoors in comfort with the outdoors all around you.

Finally, be sure to inspect the well-appointed kitchen with its gas range, endless oak cabinets and pantry.
