Property Description

Welcome to 5789 Haystack Drive, a truly Alaskan property offering privacy, sweeping views, multiple buildings, and 4.71 acres of usable land approximately 35 minutes north of Fairbanks. The main home features a craftsman-style exterior with a warm cabin-inspired interior and is designed to take full advantage of its elevated setting and impressive views. The first floor includes a spacious living room with fireplace, kitchen, full bathroom, large laundry room, and a generously sized bedroom. An oversized crawl space, closer in size and functionality to a partial basement, provides excellent access to the home’s utilities along with additional storage potential. Upstairs, the private primary suite feels like its own retreat, featuring a separate foyer, walk-in closet, ensuite bathroom, and private balcony overlooking the surrounding landscape. A wraparound deck extends the living space outdoors and provides multiple areas to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy the view. A long private driveway leads to the main residence and a detached two-car garage measuring approximately 1,100 square feet, providing substantial space for vehicles, equipment, storage, or workshop use. Near the entrance to the property is an additional rustic dry guest cabin measuring just under 400 square feet. The cabin offers excellent flexibility for guest accommodations, a private workspace, recreational use, or potential rental income. A second garage at the front of the property provides more than 500 additional square feet for parking, workshop space, storage, snowmachines, four-wheelers, boats, and other Alaskan toys. The 4.71-acre parcel offers relatively flat, usable terrain with room for additional outbuildings, recreational space, gardens, or future improvements. Positioned above the inversion, the property enjoys an elevated setting with expansive views from much of the main homesite. Access is from Haystack Drive, a wide gravel road connecting to the highway, making the commute into Fairbanks surprisingly manageable. The highway is generally state maintained and plowed, while cell phone service and internet availability provide the connectivity needed for everyday living. With multiple garages, a guest cabin, usable acreage, privacy, incredible views, and space for virtually every Alaskan hobby, 5789 Haystack Drive offers the character and lifestyle buyers hope to find when they imagine owning a property in Interior Alaska.
