Land with Home for Sale in Fairbanks, Alaska

971 High Grade Way is the kind of property that captures what people come to Alaska for. Set in the hills north of Fairbanks and positioned above the inversion, this three-story home offers sweeping views, abundant natural light, and a setting that feels private while still being within easy reach of town. From both the living room and the primary suite, you can take in incredible sightlines that stretch across Fairbanks and even Denali on a clear day. With 2,529 square feet of living space, 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, 1 partial bathroom, and a detached two-car garage of approximately 1,008 square feet, this property delivers space, character, and functionality in a location that stands out. Built in 1985 with durable 2x8 construction and Fibrex windows from Renewal by Andersen, the home is designed to handle Interior Alaska conditions while providing a warm and inviting living environment. Major system upgrades include a Buderus boiler and water heater installed in 2022, along with a new heater added to the garage in 2025. The layout is thoughtfully arranged across three levels. The lower level includes two bedrooms, a bathroom, and a boiler room, offering separation and flexibility. The main level serves as the heart of the home, where the kitchen, dining area, and living room come together around a wood-burning fireplace, creating a natural gathering space. The wraparound deck extends this level outdoors, with a covered front section that adds both visual appeal and protection from the elements. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a spacious retreat with a custom tile bathroom and elevated views that make the most of the home’s south-facing orientation. Bathrooms have been tastefully remodeled in 2019 and again in 2026, reflecting ongoing care and thoughtful updates. The design throughout blends rustic Alaska elements with Mediterranean-inspired touches, creating a style that feels both grounded and refined. Large windows bring in natural light throughout the day, enhancing the connection between the interior spaces and the surrounding landscape. Outside, the property continues to deliver. A wraparound driveway creates easy access and flow throughout the property, leading to a highly functional detached garage featuring a drive-through configuration, pull-through door, tool room, and an upper-level finished space that can serve as a workshop, recreation area, or private retreat. The property is also equipped with a 50-amp RV plug, making it well-suited for guests, travel rigs, or additional utility needs. Ample space allows for vehicles, recreational equipment, and year-round Alaskan living. Located near Fox for local dining and just a short drive into Fairbanks for shopping and services, this home offers a strong balance of accessibility and setting. The commute to Fort Wainwright, including the Trainor Gate, is approximately 15 to 20 minutes depending on traffic.
