The House Above the Beach
3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home features a beautiful ocean view on a quaint street on Douglas Island. Minutes from the extensive Treadwell Trail system, Sandy Beach & local restaurants. Walk a few minutes south on the Treadwell Trail and see an active eagle’s nest amongst a healthy second-growth forest. Walk two doors north to a staircase that will take you down to Savikko Park and Sandy Beach.
Built in 1936, this 2200 square foot home was redesigned by an architect and fully renovated in 2021. Capturing the original craftsman character while incorporating modern elements, this home features a gourmet kitchen with Bosche appliances, radiant in-floor heat, large picture windows, and a master ensuite with a shower room and air tub. Enjoy the oversized couches while you drink in the view of the Gastineau Channel. This home features a collection of original native art that captures the cultural beauty and talent of Alaska’s first people.
Master Suite: split king bed with an adjustable base, full-sized mirror, large dresser, smart TV, mid century modern furniture. And – the master bathroom! Double sinks, private toilet room & beautiful shower with an air tub.
Kitchen: quartz countertops, modern cabinetry, undercabinet lighting, and a large pantry make for an easy-to-use, hard-to-not-enjoy culinary experience. This kitchen has everything you need to host dinner for a few or for many. The island has two comfy stools to make meal preparation a social experience, and the expanding dining table can accommodate eight dinner guests. The half-bath off the kitchen makes hosting dinner parties even more comfortable.
Living room: The large picture windows frame the teal waters of the channel where you can watch the tide come in & go out. The couches are big enough to snuggle up with your sweetie and enjoy the view, or watch a good movie after the sun goes down. Smart TV, midcentury modern furniture and an open floor plan make this space easy to enjoy. Live-edge accents from nearby Hoonah compliment the living area.
Downstairs bedroom 1: queen bed with new foam mattress, walk-in closet with sliding barn door, and a large loveseat to enjoy quiet time to yourself. The ocean view from the bed will make you never want to close the blinds.
Downstairs bedroom 2: two twin XL beds make this room great for kids or the single travelers of the group. A dresser, small closet with storage, and a nook make the space fun for little people or a good spot to store luggage.
Downstairs utility room: new washer and dryer set, deep utility sink, and a full bathroom for the downstairs guests. The cabinets store extra linens for your group. Please be aware of the low ceilings in this area of the home.
