Raven's Rest on 5th Avenue's central location is easy walking distance to the city center, parks, art galleries, bars, banks, shopping, courthouse, UAF downtown, school district office, and popular restaurants. It has a historical feel, a quiet location, and south facing windows so that sunlight floods the space. High ceilings and tall windows make this home seem more spacious. It is well-suited for couples, solo adventurers, and business travelers. This charming one bedroom home features the original kitchen sink of the home that was renovated from the 1930’s and paint, wall paper, lighting, doors, and windows are in keeping with the era. These little details add to the historical feel, while still enjoying the modern features of a quality vacation rental. A/C unit keeps you cool during the hot and occasional smokey summer days! The queen size bed is elevated and there is a step up to help climb into the fresh linens after a long day.
