Xeno Vacation Rentals welcomes you to a unique piece of Alaskan history! Once a 1950s Alaska Railroad Section House, this unique home was relocated to the scenic hillside in the '60s. Lovingly restored to blend modern comfort with vintage details. Industrial accents—like exposed steel beams, a commemorative plaque and repurposed copper pipes for the bar footrest—pay tribute to its storied past. You will have exclusive access to the entire house, garage, and fenced yard during your stay.
We are available 24/7/365 for guests by phone/text or email. We can be as available or distant as the guest chooses. Don't hesitate to ask for recommendations or special tips -- there so much more to see and do than you will possibly have time for!
Set in a peaceful, tree-lined residential neighborhood on Anchorage's desirable hillside, the home offers a quiet retreat. You are just 15 minutes from downtown and conveniently close to local hiking and biking trails, restaurants, and all the city has to offer.
