“I LOVE MY FOREVER HOME”
Says Ann, a happy Oasis at Birch Lake home owner, and here is why:
SAFE AND SECURE: Located just north of the “wind belt” of Wasilla, the gated community of no more than 22 homes allows her to take safe daily walks with her dog to enjoy the lake wildlife. Also, traveling “outside” is more relaxing knowing all is secure at home.
ENVIRONMENTAL WONDERLAND: Because Birch Lake is non-motorized, it is home to sandhill cranes, swans, loons, ducks and even the occasional river otters. There are fish in the lake, and the salmon migrate up Meadow Creek which flows through the north end of the property.
“Grandchildren love the Oasis.”
BARRIER FREE DESIGN: All the homes have ADA considerations throughout, including a large master bath with roll-in shower. The private guest suite could be used by a caregiver if needed. The oversize garage allows room for a wheelchair or workshop.
LUXURIOUS QUALITY: The homes feature quartz counter tops, plywood cabinets, solid doors, 9’ walls, ample windows and extensive tile work. Even the insulated doors are hand painted with woodgrain finish to match the interior.
CONVENIENT LOCATION: The Oasis is located a mile from the town center of Big Lake. All services expected of a small town are available in this friendly community, as well as a library, 4 parks and many recreation facilities. A doctor’s office, dentist, and physical therapist are also here to serve you. There are many opportunities to volunteer, staying active and involved. And with the Parks Highway 4-lane expansion underway, it is only a short drive to the “big city”.
MANY AFFORDABLE HOUSING OPTIONS: There are 10 lakefront townhomes, and 12 large homesites (over an acre) with access to the lake and to the creek. The lakefront townhomes are two or three-bedroom with one or two stall garages, and start at $255,000 with HOA dues of $65/month, making the Oasis a cost-effective solution for retirement.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY: The homes are 5-star plus energy rated with natural gas and underground power. In-floor heat is controlled by four zones to optimize comfort. Cost effective direct and indirect LED lighting and the natural gas fireplace provide a wonderful ambiance.
EXTRAS AND OPTIONS: A free 12’x40’ designated RV parking area is provided for each homeowner. Some chosen options at an extra cost are a covered porch, a solarium, a dock on the lake, or roofing the RV parking stall.
