Live MLS feedAbout This Home
Welcome to 3480 W 78th Ave, a super well-cared-for 2,212 sq ft home in desirable Southwest Anchorage. This 4-bedroom, 3-full-bath residence offers two large living areas, an updated kitchen with new stainless appliances, and a south-facing backyard perfect for outdoor living and entertaining. Recent improvements include a newer roof, fresh interior and exterior paint, and thoughtful updates... throughout that make this home feel larger than its square footage. With no HOA and a prime location close to schools, parks, shopping, and major Anchorage amenities, this property is move-in ready and built for everyday comfort. Active and recent listings in the 78th Avenue/Southwest Anchorage area show a competitive price point for well-maintained 4-bedroom homes. For example, nearby 4-bed/3-bath homes in the 2,200-2,500 sq ft range are listing in the mid-$500Ks, with Zillow's estimated value band for this property around $563K-$635K. Compared to smaller 3-bed options nearby (e.g., ~1,040 sq ft homes in the low $400Ks), 3480 W 78th Ave offers significantly more space, an extra bathroom, and updated systems and finishes that support stronger value retention. Versus larger or multi-family properties in the area, this single-family home provides a turnkey, low-maintenance profile with broad buyer appeal. Local Schools (Anchorage School District) The home is served by the Anchorage School District, with multiple elementary, middle, and high school options in Southwest Anchorage and nearby neighborhoods. Families in this part of town typically have convenient access to well-established schools and extracurricular programs, with reasonable commutes to major Anchorage campuses. For exact school assignments and current ratings, verify with the Anchorage School District boundary maps and school report cards, as boundaries can shift and specific programs vary by campus. Southwest Anchorage is known for its established residential streets, proximity to parks and trails, and easy access to everyday services. Residents enjoy nearby neighborhood parks and multi-use trails, plus access to the broader Anchorage trail network and Chugach State Park access points on the Hillside. Quick drives to major retail corridors, grocery stores, and big-box retailers, including areas like Dimond Mall, Costco, and other Southwest Anchorage commercial nodes. Commute & Access: Convenient access to major roads, the airport, and downtown Anchorage, making this a practical base for professionals and families.
