Land with Home for Sale in Fairbanks, Alaska
681 Yak Rd, Fairbanks, AK 99709
Welcome to 681 Yak Road, an exceptional Chena Ridge property that brings together two features rarely found in the same home: city water service and an elevated location above the inversion. Set on the desirable west side of Fairbanks, this beautifully maintained residence offers outstanding craftsmanship, thoughtful upgrades, and a setting that captures the best of Interior Alaska living. With three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, one partial bathroom, and garage space for four vehicles, this property combines comfort, functionality, and curb appeal in a location that continues to be one of Fairbanks' most sought-after areas. From the moment you arrive, the home makes a lasting impression. Farm-style fencing lines the driveway, creating a welcoming approach that leads to a beautifully landscaped property surrounded by mature trees and a wooded backdrop. The fenced yard offers privacy and usable outdoor space, while established walking trails along the rear property line invite you to enjoy the natural surroundings right from your own backyard. Southern exposure fills the property with abundant natural light throughout the day, enhancing both the interior living spaces and the outdoor environment. Inside, pride of ownership is immediately apparent. The home has been meticulously maintained and was recently inspected by Tim Henry, reflecting the exceptional level of care invested in the property over the years. Every space has been thoughtfully designed to balance everyday functionality with comfortable living. The chef-inspired kitchen serves as the centerpiece of the home, offering generous workspace, quality finishes, and an efficient layout that makes everything from weeknight dinners to holiday entertaining feel effortless. The adjoining living spaces create a warm and inviting atmosphere, while multiple gathering areas provide flexibility for relaxing, hosting guests, or simply enjoying quiet evenings at home. Secondary heat sources add both comfort and character during Interior Alaska's winter months. The spacious primary suite is located on the upper level, creating a private retreat complete with a full bathroom and ample room to unwind at the end of the day. The additional bedrooms and bathrooms provide comfortable accommodations for guests, hobbies, home office needs, or a variety of other uses, making the home adaptable to changing lifestyles. Outdoor living is equally impressive. The upgraded Trex deck has been built for lasting durability and provides an outstanding space for outdoor dining, entertaining, or enjoying peaceful mornings surrounded by mature landscaping. The manicured yard reflects years of attentive care, creating a property that feels established, welcoming, and ready to enjoy from the first day of ownership. For those needing exceptional storage and workspace, this property truly stands apart. In addition to the attached two-car garage, a recently constructed detached two-car shop provides outstanding flexibility for vehicles, recreational equipment, woodworking, hobbies, or workshop space. A whole-property wired for a backup generator adds another level of convenience and preparedness, providing peace of mind year-round. Located just minutes from shopping, dining, schools, parks, and everyday amenities, 681 Yak Road offers the rare opportunity to enjoy privacy, natural surroundings, and elevated living without sacrificing convenience. The combination of city water, Chena Ridge location, four garage spaces, recent shop construction, meticulous maintenance, and above-the-inversion setting makes this a property that is exceptionally difficult to replicate. Homes of this caliber rarely become available. If you've been searching for a property that delivers quality, functionality, and an unmistakable Alaska lifestyle in one of Fairbanks' premier locations, 681 Yak Road is ready to exceed expectations.
