Remodeled Hillside Mini-Estate
$272,500

10231 Lone Tree Drive
Valli Vue Estates
Leased for one year


How to get there


This home site is so private that you hardly know you have neighbors! It's one of the largest (26,318 square feet) lots in popular Valli Vue Estates. So beautifully landscaped, with trees, lawns and private lounging areas. Speaking of taking your ease, the owners have also decided to include the expensive hot tub (see below) in the price of the home.

This is a true two-story home, where so many in this price range are split entries with part of it below grade. There was an extensive addition created in recent years. The result was a dramatically enlarged kitchen with breakfast area, a formal dining room and a home office. The countertops are of Corion, a feature more often found only in much more costly homes. 

That part of the home opens from a large family room. There is also a pantry, mud room and laundry room in this area. At the front of the home is the living room and entry foyer under soaring ceilings with many south-facing windows. As you can see from the photos below, the decor is white-on-white for maximum light and open feelings.

Upstairs the master bedroom is generous in size, with a "California Closets" organized walk-in closet and separate bath. Another bath serves the other bedrooms upstairs.

For the recreationists, the home includes a fenced RV parking pad beside the generous two-car garage. Cedar shake roofs such as you see on this home have longer rated lives than composition shingles but are not often provided in newer homes because of high lumber costs in recent years.

Valli Vue Estates (yes that's the correct spelling!) has long been one of the Anchorage Hillside's most popular areas because of its paved streets, underground utilities, and public water system. It's true country living in the suburbs and only a short drive into Anchorage, five minutes to Hilltop ski area and the lighted cross-country ski trails. Service High is in the vicinity, O'Malley Elementary is well-regarded and just down the road and Hanshew middle school is at the foot of the hill.

A complete home information package is in the home and available on request. The owner's property disclosure does not state any items of concern. The package also includes the report obtained by the owner when he bought the home three years ago, plus a survey and other items of general interest.

Open House Directions: Off Main Tree and O'Malley. First left is Lone Tree. Follow it down and look for the cute suspended mailbox on the right and the big rock beside the driveway. Or, coming in from Abbott Rd., go up Main Tree and take a right on Lone Tree. The house will be on the left coming that way.
