Property Description
My Perfect Alaskan Retreat!!
Thoughts from the perspective of an Alaskan pilot.
As a pilot, I've spent my life chasing horizons, but nothing prepared me for the moment I found this half-acre, double-lot paradise along the Seldovia Slough, my ultimate hideaway, where my love for aviation, adventure, and serenity collide.
Perched right across from our small Seldovia airport, this waterfront retreat gives me a front-row seat to every plane that roars down the runway or rests at the airstrip. From my expansive deck, coffee in hand, I watch the skies come alive, feeling the pulse of flight in my bones while surrounded by Alaska's wild beauty. This isn't just a home, it's been the haven I've always dreamed of.
Every day here feels like a page from an aviator's fantasy. The main lot's garage houses my two 4-wheelers (included with the property!), but you could keep bicycles, and gear, ready for any adventure by air, ground or sea!
The driveway makes coming and going a breeze, while the adjacent undeveloped lot surrounds me in privacy, its towering spruce trees making me feel like I'm tucked away in my own wooded retreat, with the airport's hum just close enough to keep my heart racing. Most lots along the slough are tiny, lacking any land, trees, parking, garage or driveway space, so I feel so spoiled here!
As an adventurer, Seldovia has been my playground. The Seldovia Slough teems with life, otters slip through the water, King salmon and Jacks flash beneath the surface, and bears, ducks, and swans wander through my waterfront "yard." Eagles, our constant companions, soar above or perch in our many mature spruce trees, their calls blending with the occasional drone of engines. Our small airstrip doesn't have any lights, so the traffic is minimal as the days come to a close.
The metal roof shrugs off snow like a seasoned pro, and the expansive, newly treated wood decks are my sunlit haven for morning coffee or planning my next flight. Other than flying my plane, this has been my go-to spot, whether I'm casting a line at high tide, leading a sunrise stretching session, or hosting friends for an evening of storytelling as we watch planes come and go.
Our A-frame home has been my personal slice of heaven. The upstairs master suite is my cockpit of calm, vaulted ceilings, skylights, dual sinks, a walk-in closet, and a convenient shower and toilet right in the "closet room" create a retreat that has everything I need, and brings comfort and inspires rest at the end of day.
Downstairs, the open-concept living area, with vaulted ceilings and its fully outfitted kitchen and breakfast bar, flows into bright dining and living spaces, with floor to ceiling picture frame windows capturing the airstrip and the hills beyond, perfect for unwinding or entertaining.
Custom wood shelving and accents built by a friend, add a warmth that grounds me, while the bunkhouse, once a sewing/craft room can welcome extra guests with its massive Trex deck, ideal for late-night conversations with friends and the occasional blue jays.
Sold turn-key with all furnishings, appliances, deck furniture, and even those trusty 4-wheelers, this place will be ready for you to land and make it your own. It's more than a home, it's where my passion for flight, my thirst for adventure, and my need for peace converged.
For any aviator dreaming of a retreat that fuels the soul, this Seldovia Slough retreat is the destination you've been searching for, it has been the perfect Alaska home, but now it's your turn!
