Rare opportunity to own two adjoining 2-acre lots on Whale Island in Sitka, Alaska which offers a unique blend of privacy and community. Lots 2A and 2B can be purchased together at a discounted rate to create a stunning 4-acre property or purchased individually as two subdivided lots.
Situated on a 32-acre habitable island with year-round access and just a short 1.5 mile boat ride from two Sitka harbors, these lots boast a unique coastal landscape with three coves and one small inlet. Lot 2B includes a 90-foot high hill, making it an ideal home and garden site sheltered from winter winds. The open, level 3,000+ square foot location offers sunny southern exposure and a small pond. Additionally, there are two or three other picturesque home building sites with dramatic mountain backdrops. Upgrades include a rebuilt WW2 trail and underground conduit for electrical access. A branch/turn off of this cross log road leads onto lot 2B on its eastern side near the community dock and extends through both lots 2B and 2A. This 10 foot wide trail has an easement permit granted by BLM to the Whale Island Association. The island’s vegetation, typical of southeast Alaska, includes alders, hemlocks, Sitka spruce, and a few elbow cedars on the sunny slope. Explore the lush forest with Chanterelle mushrooms and various fungi. Your island retreat awaits.
