I have two one-acre + lots listed on James Maria Road, each listed for $75,000. This is truly beautiful property is located on a Kenai Peninsula Borough-maintained road just off Old East End Road at 12 miles east of Homer. This area of the Borough is often referred to as Fritz Creek. When we first moved to Homer we lived down this road and would go to the Fritz Creek General Store for sundries and our mail, and you probably would, too, if you built a house here. They have a fantastic bakery and sandwich shop, wonderful tamales and pizza, too!You might also want to eat at one of the area's finest restaurants across the street, the Homestead Restaurant (http://www.homesteadrestaurant.net/) Our youngest went to McNeil Canyon School (www.edline.net/pages/McNeil_Canyon_Elementary) and we were incredibly happy with her education there. We liked the fact that there was a very strong and active Parent-Teacher Advisory Group there. 
But let's talk a little more about this lovely property. One lot is a corner lot, accessed by James Maria Road and by the newly-constructed Lisa Street. (These roads are marked if you're out for a drive and each have my signs on them. ) The second lot is just to the west of the corner lot and is accessed by James Maria. Both lots have giant cottonwood trees standing on them--these trees are so wonderful. Do you know that the soothing skin salve "Balm of Gilead" is made from the sticky pitch that exudes from the spring buds of the cottonwood leaves? There are several herbalists that provide this terrific salve to local stores and at the summer farmer's market. The perfume from these trees each May is indescribable, but once experienced, will always say "Alaska." The view from these lots is wonderful--a narrowing of Kachemak Bay below them bring the Kenai Mountains even closer than in other areas that follow the Bay from Homer east to the Fox River Flats.

Thus the glaciers and the mountains themselves just seem to loom over you here. I'm going to add another photo just because words don't do justice to this property!!! Again, these properties are $75,000 each and you can email me for more information.
