Looking for a different way to live? If so, here is an Alaskan float house for you! With 1452sf, 3BRs, 3BA & a small shed, this home offers a new & interesting way of life for you! No land or permits come with it, this is for the sale of a house on a float only. Boating & practical DIY skills are essential. Not financeable. The home is in good condition, the float is in poor condition. (Cont ->)The home offers a large great room, an instant hot water system, a commercial stove, many appliances, some furniture & an inverter & battery pack. It does not come with a generator. The home was once staff quarters for a lodge. There is a formal front door as well as a practical back door that opens into a mudroom/ laundry room. Out back is a shed with a fish cleaning station & storage. The bedrooms are all a similar size with a small bathroom in each. Each bathroom has a shower & a toilet, with a sink in an alcove outside the bathroom. Two bedrooms open to the deck outside the house, while one bedroom opens inside the house. One room can be changed to also open to the inside of the house if desired. The home presents nicely but is older and needs some upgrades. Float house living is fun, delightful & a quintessential part of historical Alaskan living, especially in regards to the once mobile logging camps. Today some float houses remain but many have been moved up onto land as the floats do require more floatation & upkeep as time goes on. If you have some practical skills and are looking for a great new way of life, then this could be it!
