About this home
Discover a truly extraordinary property in one of Alaska's most iconic and awe-inspiring locations. Nestled just outside the historic town of McCarthy, this 5+/- acre gem offers a rare blend of natural beauty, modern comforts, and entrepreneurial potential -- all within the majestic Wrangell-St. Elias National Park.Once a thriving copper mining town, McCarthy has become one of Alaska's most sought-after destinations second only to Denali National Park in visitor popularity. Unlike other former mining towns that have long since been transformed, McCarthy retains its authentic character while standing on the brink of upscale development. National Geographic and other major publications have featured this region for its raw beauty, rich history, and unmatched adventure potential.
Located at Mile 59 of McCarthy Road, this property offers something incredibly rare: full drive-up access on the west side of the Kennecott River. You can pull straight into the garage, unload supplies with ease, and enjoy the convenience of being just 1.5 miles from McCarthy's town center by foot, bike, or ATV. Several nearby landing options for pilots include a gravel airstrip only 0.1± miles from the property line.
Thoughtfully developed with deep respect for the natural surroundings, this turnkey homestead features a 2,600± square foot modern main home and three beautifully crafted log cabins, all set up for comfortable, off-grid living. Every essential amenity is covered with a DEC-approved five-bedroom septic system, two producing wells (75-foot residential and 85-foot commercial), and high-capacity generators.
Whether you're seeking a serene retreat, a launchpad for adventure tourism, or a unique investment property, this extraordinary slice of Alaskan paradise offers it all privacy, access, history, and potential. Step into a lifestyle that combines rugged independence with refined living, surrounded by some of the most stunning scenery on Earth.
