It boasts a 4-car garage constructed over fully contained shipping containers on each end.The garage can accommodate oversize vehicles such as an RV or boat. The shipping containers have been equipped with sturdy shelving and might function as storage or shop space. This house was designed with massive pictures windows for awe-inspiring views at any hour of the day or night. The infinite stars of the night time skies take your breath away. The daytime vista includes mountain range, volcano, a sliver of ocean and beautiful old pine trees. There are some days in which you may only see clouds rolling through the fields toward the house, large and soft and ominous all at once. Anytime, day or night, animal life abounds. Moose, sandhill cranes, bunnies, deer, eagles and owls frequent the property. Sunrises and sunsets are spectacular. Imagine the sky catching fire. Whatever is happening in the outside world, you can curl up with pillows and a blanket in the bay window, watching it all unfold in front of you. It's worth noting that the electrical lines to the property are buried and neighboring properties are spaced 2 or more acres apart. There are no structures or electrical lines obscuring the view. The house is located on 2.5 acres in a quiet neighborhood about a mile off Diamond Ridge. While it's only a few minutes from town, it's also a world away. In the summer, the fields surrounding the house light up with fireweed in bloom. In the winter, snow falls heavily. A surreal sensation of waking up in a Christmas painting every day during the height of winter. The winter conditions are great for snowshoes or cross-country skiing on your own private acreage. You'll also find miles of well-groomed cross-country trails accessible via trailhead about 2 miles from Bidarki Drive. Diamond Creek Recreational Area is only a few miles away and it is the best hiking trail this side of Kachemak Bay. A windmill helps generate electricity for the property. The Homer Electric Company meter ticks forward as electricity is consumed by the household and it ticks backward as electricity is generated by the windmill. This has the effect of reducing electrical bills significantly.
