About 608 Ridgecrest Drive #2

HomeApartments in Fairbanks 608 Ridgecrest Drive #2, UNIT 1 2, Fairbanks, Alaska 99709, United States

Welcome to this warm and inviting two-bedroom, one-bath apartment tucked into the peaceful Ridgecrest area of Fairbanks. Offering approximately 750 square feet, this unit blends comfort, privacy, and a serene natural setting with the convenience of being just minutes from town. Surrounded by mature birch trees and winter scenery, the home feels like a quiet retreat without sacrificing accessibility. Inside, the unit features a spacious kitchen with plenty of cabinetry and counter space, full-size appliances, and a natural wood aesthetic that adds a cozy, cabin-like feel. The adjoining living room offers large windows that look out to the surrounding trees, filling the space with soft natural light and beautiful year-round views. Both bedrooms have comfortable layouts with fresh carpeting and easy access to the updated bathroom, which includes a full tub/shower, modern vanity, and bright lighting. The apartment includes its own private entry with keypad access, and the layout provides a quiet and comfortable living environment. All utilities (heat, electric, water/sewer, and trash) are fully included in the monthly rent, leaving only internet for the tenant to set up. This makes budgeting simple and predictable, especially during the colder months. The Ridgecrest neighborhood is known for its wooded surroundings and quiet residential feel. Despite its privacy, the location offers an easy commute: approximately 10 minutes to the University of Alaska Fairbanks, 12–14 minutes to Fairbanks Memorial Hospital, and around 15 minutes to downtown Fairbanks. Fort Wainwright's main gate is typically reachable within 18–20 minutes, depending on traffic and road conditions. This makes the home an excellent option for students, professionals, or anyone seeking proximity to town while enjoying a more secluded, nature-forward living experience. Rent is $2,000 per month with all utilities except internet included. No pets are permitted. This clean, comfortable, and well-cared-for apartment is ready for its next tenant. Contact us to schedule a showing or to request an application.
