Description
Supplements: Welcome to 56422 S View Point Drive, a truly exceptional custom home set on 1.98 wooded acres overlooking the Big Susitna River. Built in 2023, this property combines striking contemporary design, quality craftsmanship and a remarkable Alaska setting with sweeping river, Denali and Alaska Range views. Located within a private gated community, the home offers privacy and seclusion while remaining within convenient reach of Wasilla, Willow and Talkeetna. The 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers approximately 2,694 square feet with most of the living space thoughtfully arranged on the main level. Warm in-floor heat, a woodstove and abundant natural light create a comfortable atmosphere throughout the seasons. The dark exterior, metal roofing, stone accents, exposed natural-wood elements and dramatic covered entry give the home a distinctive modern Alaska appearance. Inside, the spacious kitchen is one of the home's defining features. Custom black cabinetry, extensive storage, open shelving, butcher-block work surfaces and an oversized stone island provide both beauty and function. The island includes a large undermount sink and generous workspace, while the 36-inch gas range, custom hood, statement backsplash, built-in appliances and dedicated beverage or coffee station complete a kitchen designed for serious cooking and entertaining. A massive rough-hewn timber opening connects the kitchen to the living area while adding warmth and character. The living room is positioned to take advantage of the river setting, with oversized windows, exterior doors and a woodstove surrounded by dramatic dark tile and a substantial custom hearth. The open layout provides plenty of room for gathering without sacrificing clearly defined spaces. Just off the living room is an impressive office or library featuring extensive built-in bookshelves, large windows and custom architectural details. Glass-paneled pocket doors allow the office to be opened to the main living area or closed for privacy. The main-level primary suite is exceptionally spacious and includes direct access to the covered outdoor living area. The private bath features two separate vanities, a large tiled walk-in shower with multiple shower fixtures, contemporary finishes and a separate water closet. Beyond the bath is an enormous walk-in dressing room and closet with extensive hanging space, shelving, built-in storage and a long custom drawer cabinet. The main level also includes a stylish powder room and a large laundry/mudroom with cabinetry, counter space, storage, a built-in bench and direct access to the garage. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms, a full guest bath and flexible bonus space currently used as a home gym. One upstairs bedroom enjoys beautiful views toward the river. The attached garage and workshop provide approximately 990 square feet of highly usable space. The garage has room for vehicles and equipment, while the separate shop includes workbenches, tool storage, bright lighting, windows, a utility sink and exterior access. The property also includes a very nice detached shed for additional equipment and seasonal storage. Outdoor spaces were designed to enjoy the setting in every season. A large timber-framed covered porch provides a protected place to relax, entertain and take in the surrounding forest. A separate patio, walking paths and a private viewing deck overlooking the river create multiple places to experience the scenery. A wood-fired barrel sauna adds another unique Alaska amenity. The grounds also include a traditional elevated cache, mature birch and spruce, natural vegetation and ample gravel parking. The community offers maintained recreational trails for hiking, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing, along with private community access to both the Susitna and Kashwitna Rivers. The home is situated near the confluence of these major river systems, creating an extraordinary landscape of braided channels, gravel bars, wildlife and constantly changing views. Moose and other Alaska wildlife are frequent visitors, while the property's open river exposure provides exceptional opportunities to watch sunsets, moonrises, northern lights and changing weather over the Alaska Range.
