Some dreams begin on the sea. Freedom Point is a remote waterfront property that started as one couple's dream of an off-grid life connected to Southeast Alaska's tides, weather, and wildness. Though they built the foundation--literally and figuratively--that dream has proven too much for their current season of life. Now, they're offering the next owner a rare chance to pick up where theyleft off and write the next chapter of this remote-living story. Located around the corner from Cod Point in between Long Arm and Naha Bay with steel-piled dock access and a breakwater to protect against winter storms, Freedom Point offers an 8' x 40' floating dock secured by 2 steel piling, with room for your boat and space for a visitor's vessel. A ramp leads uphill to the main house and a 12' x 10' tool shed, perfect for gear storage just off the landing. Behind the main house sits a 20' x 26' freestanding structure with a bedroom and large shop area, giving added workspace and privacy potential. A 7' x 13' greenhouse expands the opportunity for self-sufficient living. There is also a brand-new 3,000-gallon water tank on site that is not yet connected to the roof catchment system an easy project that will be left to the new owner to complete. Power is supplied by two diesel generators that feed into a battery bank system, offering the ability to operate heavy load appliances. Once major loads like laundry are completed, the home can be run efficiently on 12V battery power. The battery bank was replaced with new units on July 17, 2025. The main home is heated by an operational Toyo stove, and several other oil drip stoves are on site but will require maintenance to become operational again. Important Note There is significant deferred maintenance on the main house, and a buyer should expect to invest time and labor to bring it up to standard. The bones are there the setting is spectacular but this is a property for someone with vision, capability, and a desire for remote living on their own terms. Freedom Point isn't for everyone. But if you're the kind of person who sees opportunity where others see effort, who seeks solitude without isolation, and who believes the Alaska dream is worth working for this may be the adventure you've been waiting for.
