Living on Hillside can be a challenge sometimes, but not if you are here: 1/4 mile off
mid-O'Malley, across from the Alaska Zoo. You can have it all: privacy, over an acre of
well-cleared land, a remodeled home -- and, perhaps best of all, an easy commute.
The back yard sold the Wells family on this home six years ago. Now that they are
returning to Arkansas to be closer to family, they hope the next owners will love it as
much as they have.
Meanwhile, they remodeled much of the home and created a master bedroom suite from the
former garage area on the lower level. This elegant and private space has Pergo floors,
built-in bookcases, and walk-in closets. Best of all, the area opens to a private party
deck they built, which is equipped with stereo and set up for a hot tub. (Their hot tub in
place, a $10,000 value, is available for separate purchase if a buyer chooses this home
before the Wells family departs.)
The well is very productive, over 4.5 gallons per minute, which far exceeds FHA's
rigorous productivity standard of three gallons per minute. Better still, a new septic
system is being installed, designed and rated for a full four bedroom home.
There's a lot of footage in this home, over 2100 square feet of living area. The flat
yard invites a garage of any size to be built one day. There is large shed recently
rebuilt. R-6 zoning here allows keeping of horses: the Hillside's leading stable is next
to the zoo at the end of Lipscomb, on the other side of O'Malley.
