Gorgeous hillside home off of Murphy Dome Road on 4.27 wooded and south sloping acres. There have been multiple tasteful additions to the property over the years to bring the house to 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths and a 2 car heated garage. The additions give space while retaining the rustic rural treatments that make a house an “Alaskan” home, such as the woodstove in the corner and wood tongue in groove interior paneling. Head down the RAP paved driveway to the Toyo heated 2 car garage and appreciate the big yard and winter’s worth of stacked firewood. From the garage you enter the main living area of the house with a cozy living room, south facing windows and woodstove. The kitchen was remodeled and has updated appliances and cabinets with a granite breakfast bar establishing the space between the kitchen and dining area. Eat at the breakfast bar, the dining table or, weather permitting, out in the sunroom! What an awesome space for yoga, reading and visiting the sunroom is. If the weather really permits, head out on to the south facing deck and really soak in the rays. The upper level of the house boasts three bedrooms, two of which have the cutest loft areas, and a full bathroom AS WELL AS the primary suite with a bedroom, closet and bathroom of its own. The windows in the primary suite are huge, giving incredible southern exposure – you’ll have to decide if you want to soak up the view or pull the black out blinds to get some sleep! The lower level of the house holds the utility room with the forced air furnace and laundry hook ups. There’s a den which could double as a guest room in a pinch since it has a door that opens directly to the back yard and a huge rec room big enough for a pool table and then some. Also downstairs is a half bath so long potty breaks from billiards are not necessary. Like a lot of homes of this era there is storage galore with closets, storage spaces and a wired shed outside. Solar panels were another nice upgrade a few years back and, if all else fails, there is a backup generator switch already wired up. Lovingly maintained and ready for new owners!

A rare opportunity to acquire one of Interior Alaska’s most recognizable and culturally significant neighborhood establishments. The Golden Eagle Saloon has served as the unofficial “living room of Ester” for decades—a gathering place where locals, musicians, travelers, and generations of patrons have shared stories, celebrated milestones, supported community fundraisers, and experienced an authentic piece of Alaska bar culture. The current owners took over operations on January 1, 2006, and are now entering their 21st year of ownership. During that time, they have maintained the saloon’s unmistakable character while operating a hands-on, community-focused business open 365 days a year. The sale presents an opportunity for a new owner to continue its traditions or bring fresh energy and new ideas to an already established local institution. Originally constructed in 1983, the approximately 40-by-60-foot building includes the main saloon and a full basement offering substantial storage, utility and operational space. The upper level features a warm, rustic atmosphere centered around a high-capacity pellet stove, along with a full-size pool tables, two dartboards, televisions, bar equipment, coolers, a piano, local memorabilia and decades of Ester history. Live music, community events, celebrations of life and fundraisers regularly bring the space to life. One of the Golden Eagle’s best-known traditions is its cook-your-own-burger experience. The bartender provides the setup and guests grill their burgers exactly as they like them—a simple, memorable concept that has become part of the saloon’s identity. The full basement includes a boiler, utility sinks, employee shower, washer hookup, extensive storage, pellet storage and a unique bottle chute system that sends empty bottles from the bar directly into a collection area below. A 1,700-gallon backup water tank is plumbed into the building, providing an alternative water source if needed. The property consists of two lots totaling approximately two acres. One lot contains the saloon and two approximately 24-by-24-foot dry cabins that have historically been used as affordable employee housing. The cabins create additional flexibility for workforce housing, long-term rental use, seasonal lodging or other possibilities, subject to applicable approvals. The second lot contains additional parking and the septic system. The “post office” is also set up for an additional drive thru business like a coffee shop/food etc. A rebuilt well house, approximately 185-foot well, replacement septic system with lift station, secondary containment and covered fuel tanks, and a combination of pellet and boiler heat support year-round operation. The property also includes a small freestanding structure modeled after Ester’s original post office that is currently used for storage and may offer additional potential. This is more than a real estate offering. It is an opportunity to acquire an operating saloon, its established identity, business assets and a meaningful place in Ester’s history. Furniture, fixtures and equipment associated with the business are anticipated to convey, with final inclusions to be identified separately. The owners are willing to assist with a reasonable transition and share their operational knowledge with the next owner. Seller financing may be considered with a substantial down payment and acceptable terms. Financial information, inventory, equipment lists and additional property documentation are available to qualified buyers with an executed confidentiality agreement.
