Alaska, the last frontier
Only the most adventurous come to live on the edge
In the vast unspoiled wilderness
Woo, here we go
Oh my gosh
If you wanna live in Alaska
The real amenities are outside
It's out of a fairy tale
It's gonna be amazing
That's the view I was looking for
And those views change around the clock
Are you kidding me? Wow
And every day is an adventure
Alaska is not for sissies
When you are living Alaska
We just love Alaska
24 hours of daylight in the summer time
Beautiful
My wife and I moved up here for one year
25 years ago
People ask when we're coming home
This is our home
Hi there
Let's come on over here
Let's go do some gold panning
Sounds exciting
Let's go kids
Who's excited guys?
Me
And we're moving from Kentucky
To Alaska
What do you think guys?
Looks gorgeous
We are gold fishing
We went to go visit Denali
The mountain
And holy moly
Something to fall in love with
Moving here to Alaska
And getting the opportunity to go out
And experience the nature and stuff
Something we're looking forward to
McKinnon struck it rich over here I think
After Casey landed a job
As a physician's assistant in Fairbanks
She and Michael couldn't wait
To move their three kids
McKinnon, Cruz and Cannon
4,300 miles from Kentucky
To start their Alaska adventure
She mentioned Fairbanks, Alaska
I was like are you crazy?
That's kind of far away
Every time I talk to him I say
Alaska, Alaska
Been in Kentucky for 42 years
Come up here to the last frontier
It's going to be an adventure
I'm very excited about that
We wanted a new beginning
We absolutely fell in love with Fairbanks
This was some place that
If we were going to start something new
This would be the place to do it
You can always look back and say
What would have happened if we would have moved
But I don't want to look back and say what if
I'm making a cube
You're making a killing over there
Whoa
Okay
Holy moly
You're rich sis
You're buying dinner
Fairbanks was a gold miner's dream
Back in the early 1900s
When the town experienced its first gold rush
Today
It's the second largest city in Alaska
And it's located only 200 miles south
Of the Arctic Circle
Well this is certainly something we can't do in Kentucky
I will tell you that
That's for sure
We might go panning but it'll probably be for coal instead of gold
I'm sure
I think we should really start looking for
At least three to four bedrooms with the kids
That's something we have to have
Yeah
You know being in Alaska
How cold it gets in the winter
We need to have a garage so we can keep our cars in
Because I don't want to have to get up every morning
We need to start those things
Exactly
And then of course you have to take into account work
You know have to be close to the hospital
I would like to have some nice views
Hopefully of the mountain range
And if we're moving all the way here to Alaska
I want the feel of Alaska in the house
I agree
I mean if we're going to come to Alaska
We might as well go all out
And you only live once
So might as well do what we can
That's for sure
We've been approved for $500,000
If it's got everything on the wish list
Maybe even a little bit above that
Our budget might go up a little bit
Absolutely
Kids keep panning okay
Their real estate agent Elizabeth Shock
Is hoping the Dodie's lucky streak continues
She's taken them to a house
In the Gold Stream Valley area
About 20 minutes northwest of town
It's right next to the Gold Stream public use area
That has 2,000 acres of dog food
Dog mushing and cross country ski trails
Do school buses come out this far
The school buses will actually stop
At the main road
And they can freeze there I guess
They can
Zero will seem really cold
The first time it hits zero
But once it goes to 30 below
Zero's going to feel like springtime
Wow I love it
Beautiful place beautiful property
It's absolutely gorgeous
I love it out here
So this house has 3 bedrooms 2 baths
It's almost 2,600 square feet
It's on 20 acres
20 acres that's awesome
Lots of room for the kids to play
And it's $329,000
We have our own cabin
You have your own cabin
We have a guest cabin over there
Friends and family come to visit
See the kitchen here off to the left
Wow blue
Kind of small
But good size pantry
Which is good
I haven't seen much of this
Or in the kitchen
I do not cook
It's kind of outdated though
The countertops
I like the cabinets though
But the cabinets are nice
I do like the cabinets
I like the ceilings
It has an Alaskan feel to it
It's really nice
I really don't like much of the linoleum floors
We're going to have to change those out
And we have the pellet stove here
It's a secondary heat source
Really easy to use
You just dump the bag of pellets in
Turn it on and off it goes
Makes it nice and cozy in the winter
I like all the windows too
I love the view
The true Alaskan nature at its best
I bet you probably see moose
Coming right through the yard
And who knows what else
As long as I'm in here
And they're out there
I think I'm good
Let's check out what is up here
A little bathroom
A little dated
A little bit more than dated
This is the bedroom
Blue carpet
I guess we can make it a boy's room
I just think the size is kind of small
Especially if it's three bedroom
And we have to put two kids
In one room
Maybe like a little sitting room here
Little sitting room
So small size bedroom
Very small
So where is the master
Not the one downstairs
It has to be
What is that
Say what
That's something new
Michael and Casey Doty
Are taking the giant leap
From their life in Kentucky
To a new life and new home
In Fairbanks, Alaska
What is that
That's something new
Interesting
I dare you go ahead
You put ladies first
I'll catch if you fall
A little bit shaky here
Michael the view is amazing up here
This is like being in a castle
The kids would love this
I'm afraid of heights anyway
I'm up here now
We're staying
I can't get back down
Oh my goodness
I can see Cruz dangling
Cannon right here
Don't tell mommy
20 plus acres of property
All the peaceful
The nature itself
What the real Alaska feel
The land
Can't beat that
But the bedrooms are so small
How cool would that be
To grow up in a house
And have a tower there
You can put a lock or something
I'll live up there if you want me to
But for the kids right now
I don't know if that's gonna happen
I like it
This is a nice neighborhood
In this neighborhood
You'll be about 7 minutes from the hospital
That's not too bad
Alaskan views are big on their wish list
So the next place Elizabeth is taking them
Sits on Chena Ridge
High above Fairbanks
But still close to town
It's a really interesting home
Super energy efficient
Net zero home
Which means really no utility cost
Here we are on the left
This is it
Oh my goodness
You've got to be kidding me
Look at that view
This could be our front yard
That's amazing
Now this is a blue house
Being from Kentucky
We like the color blue
So that's just fine
This house is almost 2400 square feet
Has three bedrooms, two and a half baths
It's on 1.4 acres
Priced at $475,000
That's good, that's under our budget
This house is mainly solar powered
These shutters are all over the house
And they really serve two purposes
One in the summer when it's 24-hour daylight
To help keep out some of the light at night
So you can sleep
But also in the winter
Help keep the heat inside
Go ahead and try it
It's going to take a while then
It's not too bad
So this is my job
Every morning and night
To come and open the shutters
Oh wow, this is beautiful
Oh my goodness
I love the concrete floors also
They've got the little turtle
It's radiant floor heat
So your toes will stay nice and warm
And the masonry stove
Will heat up and radiate heat
I love this, it's beautiful
How pretty is this
When the kids are getting in trouble, time out
Probably frown upon that
Why are there two doors
To cook a pizza up there
Michael, here's your gourmet kitchen
This is what I need, a nice kitchen
I love the cabinets
Beautiful
But this kitchen, I like the contemporary look
It's stainless steel
And remember, all these appliances
Are run off electricity
Which is part of your solar net zero
And utilities
So I won't get in trouble
For leaving the lights on anymore
The oven's kind of tiny though
It's small, that's for sure
Is there any other one
The pizza oven
That's about it
Will this take us to the garage
There's not a garage
Can you build us one
Anything's possible
It's under the budget
So there's a little bit left over
With the utilities being so low
That would help out also
I saw this room when we came in
I wanted to check it out
It's a movie theater room
This is great
This might be something we could maybe convert
Into a playroom for the kids
I don't think so
This is daddy's playroom right here
I see how it's going to be
I can sit back and watch the cats
Beat Louisville all the time
Can't beat it
This is great though, this is nice
This is a bonus for sure
This is the master bedroom
Yeah, it has to be
This is nice, this is real nice
It's a little bit small
This would be the master bathroom in here
This is gorgeous
Okay, see we might have a problem
Here in the hallway
There's a bear staring at us
Well, that would be kind of scary
To see in the middle of the night though
I have to say
Bedroom here
Okay, this is nice, very cute
Looks like this is a divider
It might open up to the other bedroom
That might be a problem
Having the boys in one and her in the other
She needs her privacy
It could have shouting matches, right
Was this a bathroom over here
Yeah, nice guys
I like the washer dryer upstairs
Could we even fit
A day's worth of laundry in here
At least the kids won't fit in it
They won't get stuck
I really like the house
We want three or four bedrooms
All honesty, it's really a two bedroom
With a split down one of them
I don't know if that will work with the kids
Energy
Definitely would help in the winter time
It has the most amazing view
It does
When you think Alaska
This is what you think about
Want you all to look for Chad Street
Okay
Later that day
The whole Doty family's on a field trip
To check out an open house north of town
It's this really nice house
I think it's all one level
And it's supposed to have like a couple of acres with it
If we can find it
I think it's on the right
What does this sign say
This one is Yellow Snow Road
Do you want to stay away from roads like that
Yellow Snow Road
Maybe it's in
Are we there yet
We may be a little bit lost
Nobody gets lost in Alaska
What are you talking about
And we may be a little bit lost
The Doty family's been searching
For nearly an hour
Hoping to find an open house
North of Fairbanks
I think we should maybe turn around
I don't think we're going the right way
I'm ready just to give up
The next day
They decide to stick with their agent Elizabeth
She's taken them to a listing
That just hit the market
And checks off a lot of boxes on their wish list
In this area you'll have
A lot of names coming through
Maybe a link here and there
That kind of elucidates
So you don't really see them
I like how it's sitting back
It's a nice long driveway
Oh wow
It's gorgeous
It's got that Alaska feel to it
Yeah
It's pretty big house
It's 3400 square feet
Three bedroom, three bath
Attached two car heated garage
Sits on two acres
And they're asking 379,000
Okay
Oh my gosh
I was not expecting that
My goodness
High ceilings are great, aren't they
I love it
It opens everything up
Yeah, so many windows
Kitchen's a little bit small
How do you feel about that
With the open bar area here
I think it makes it look a lot larger
It'd be nice for entertaining
It would be, yeah
I feel like we're kind of cramped in here
And I'm in here all the time
I'd say you're never here anyway
So what's the difference
I think this definitely needs work
Going up here
It doesn't go along with the rest of the kitchen
I don't think
Oh, good bathroom
It's a full size bathroom downstairs
That's nice
And I think we've got
Two bedrooms down here
Master upstairs
Okay, well this is
Beautiful
But it kind of freaks me out a little bit
With three little kids
This is a hazard right here
I guess this would be the master bathroom
This looks like a dresser
I think they just made it into a sink
Maybe they did
We can put our clothes in there
And wash our face
Two closets
Why can you see through the closet
It looked like it used to be a sauna
Oh my gosh, I think you're right
It used to be a sauna
They made it into a closet
I prefer the sauna myself
Me too
Nice open space
Really nice, I like this
It's finished
Play room
This is awesome
I like the size of it
3,000 square feet
We have the heated garage
That's a big plus
If you're going to live here in Alaska
Then you have that loft area
That just totally freaks me out
It freaks me out to look over it
It's got the three bedrooms
And then the basement
The basement's great
Great place for the kids to play
It's a nice place
To give them even more options
Elizabeth got a fixer-upper on Violet Drive
Ten minutes east of town
That has lots of potential
And is below their budget
How cute, I love this
Elizabeth, it's so cute
This house is 2,400 square feet
It has four bedrooms, two baths
It's on three acres
It has a two-car garage
And they're asking 299,000
That's really good
If it needs some updating
We'll have some room to do that
Great Arctic entryway
Ceilings are kind of low
I feel like a giant in here
It's a little cramped feeling
Just a bit dated
They like white
I think eventually
For the price and everything
We need to upgrade
Pantry maybe
Hope so
I have not seen this
Which animal
Is only found in the Arctic
Is it the polar bear
Fur seal
Or beluga whale
Which animal is only found
In the Arctic
The answer is the polar bear
They have a thick layer of fat
And a double coat of fur
To insulate them from the cold temperatures
Their paws even have hairs and bumps
To give them traction on the ice
Pantry
Hopefully
Washer and dryer in the kitchen
I have not seen this
I can multitask
Cook dinner and do laundry at the same time
I like how it's all open though
Bedroom and bathroom from the kitchen
Looks like the master
Please don't say it's the master
It's a one-person bathroom here
You and I both could use
No way
This is
A closet
It's a bedroom
Office
Maybe
We're not going to the gym anymore
All these stairs
It's enough workout for me
Oh goodness
I know if the kids ever get in trouble
They can just come up here
I can't get up here
This could be their hideaway room
This would be a cool little
Kind of play area for them
They would love it up here
You're going to be concussed
Here in a second
Large deck, I like that
The stuff that's dated
This definitely makes up for it
Can you imagine northern lights out here
Be gorgeous
We got some really good stuff with the house
And some stuff that needs work
Property is nice
Three acres for the kids to run around in
That's great
No neighbors that we can see
But good price range
So we got some money we can put into it
To get all those things that we do want
It takes a lot of work
Put your hand out
My daughter loves horses
So to take some of those things
That she loves from Kentucky
And bring it to Alaska
Maybe take her horseback riding
And get her in with some lessons
So we can do that all as a family
I like this one
You like this one
So Michael it's been a while
Since you've done this
About 30 years
Getting the hang of it yet
Can't wait for the kids to end up
Horseback riding
Kenna's going to love it
This is so fun
But I think we're going to have to
Probably pick a house
So what about the tower house
It had all that acreage
Which is great
That tower for us
Had been nice
Especially at night
Looking at the northern lights
In the winter
But the kitchen was so outdated
And small
It did have a garage
We had that violet drive house
It was very nice
When you drove up to it
It definitely had some pluses
With that garage
It did
But once you walked in
It was just really too outdated
For me I think
Maybe we should just go ahead
And take that one off the list
I agree with you
So what about the blue house
You can't beat the views on that one
And also I love that fireplace
That stone fireplace
Zero energy
That cut down on our utilities big time
Yeah but with that
You have the small oven
And then you have the small washer and dryer
All which is very difficult
For five people
But the biggest issue
No garage
Well let's talk about Lancaster Drive
Beautiful cathedral ceilings
I love the kitchen
Really nice kitchen
Then you turn around
And you have that loft
That loft yeah it was scary
Especially with the kids
Really really did love the amount of space it had
It had a lot of space
Yeah but that really nice garage
And huge basement
But the kids bedrooms downstairs
That would be too far away from us
I've got one in mind
That I really really like
And I think we can make it work
What do you think Lancaster Drive
That's the one I was thinking
The kids will love it
Absolutely love that house
The cathedral ceilings when you walk in
All the windows and the light coming in
And we had room
3,000 square feet
That was a big decider for us
Love the basement and the garage
We'll be able to do something with that loft upstairs
Maybe we could put some rails around it
I'd rather have it closed off for the door
We'll figure something out
Nobody's allowed on the balcony
I definitely have fallen in love with Alaska
Not many people can say that they've lived here
And I value that
This is going to be awesome
Excited to start this new chapter
Very excited
We can't wait
