1 Montana Mountain Road , Carcross, YK, Y0B1B0

Only rarely does a property that combines all the best aspects of a Yukon lifestyle become available for purchase. Whether youre looking for a recreational cabin or a spot for your dream home, have a look at this Carcross property.

The titled land that the cabin sits on is half forested, 0.197 hectares in size (0.486 acres), 22-24 meters in depth, with a frontage of just over 84 meters. There are 2 unmaintained roads into the back of the property - one leads down to the Nares River waterfront residential area and then to the highway, and the other goes up Montana Mountain and then to the highway. The property has parking for several vehicles.

The 2-bedroom cabin is about 780 square feet, and is serviced with electricity and telephone. Water is delivered by truck to a 500-gallon tank that gravity-feeds to the kitchen, which has a propane range. The cabin is heated with a wood stove. There is no plumbing except in the kitchen - the toilet is an outhouse, and a bucket-powered shower has been installed ensuite.

The cabin is one of Carcross real "character" properties but although its liveable as is, it does need some work. The original cabin was built in 1942 by some soldiers who were based in Carcross, and its been added onto 7 times since then. The cabin is being offered as a turn-key - fully furnished from firewood and dishes to television.
