Property Description
Tucked away on the beach amongst the trees along the shimmering waters of the Wrangell Narrows, this sunny off-grid cabin offers a rare chance to own a true beachfront Alaskan retreat. Set on over 4 acres of lush, wooded land in Petersburg, this private, south-facing 300-square-foot cabin has been built in the perfect location to capture the sun with absolutely breathtaking ever-changing views down the narrows--where passing boats, wildlife, and endless sky create a living landscape. Accessed by a short walk from the road, the journey sets the tone: peaceful, private, and worlds away from the everyday. This warm cabin has been thoughtfully positioned to take full advantage of its stunning waterfront setting. Large picture windows invite in natural light and frame the view, making the space feel connected to the surrounding wilderness, a perfect spot to sit with binoculars and your morning coffee. Designed for simplicity and serenity, the property features a composting outhouse with a live roof and an outdoor shower with forest views, perfect for those seeking a more intentional, off-grid lifestyle. With a wood shop, a tool shed with spare bedroom, wood stove and storage , this cabin is ready to live in or offers close to 5 acres of amazing potential. Troll for salmon right in front or cast from the beach and you can have a salmon for dinner.
Whether you're looking for a quiet getaway where you can catch a salmon at your doorstep, a writer's sanctuary, or a romantic escape for two, this property offers a rare blend of seclusion and inspiration. If you've been dreaming of a place to unplug, recharge, and immerse yourself in Southeast Alaska's natural beauty, this magical little haven delivers in every way.
