In season 3 episode 4 of Buying Alaska, titled "ATV Required," viewers are taken on a journey through the rugged wilderness of Alaska as potential homebuyers search for the perfect property. This particular episode focuses on the special requirements needed for Alaskan living, namely the need for an ATV in order to navigate the terrain.
The episode begins with the introduction of the three couples that will be featured throughout the show. First up are Mike and Diane, two outdoor enthusiasts looking for a cabin with easy access to hunting and fishing spots. Next is Kyle and Stacey, a couple from Florida looking for a vacation home that can serve as a winter getaway. Finally, there are Deon and Angie, newlyweds in search of a home that can accommodate their growing family and their love of the outdoors.
As the episode progresses, viewers are taken along on each couple's journey to find the perfect Alaskan property. For Mike and Diane, this means finding a cabin with easy access to fishing spots. They tour a rustic cabin with a large yard and a nearby creek, perfect for fishing. However, the property is only accessible by ATV or snowmobile, so Mike and Diane must factor in the cost of purchasing an ATV into their budget.
Meanwhile, Kyle and Stacey are on the hunt for a vacation home that can serve as a winter retreat. They tour several properties, but many are too small or too remote for their liking. Finally, they come across a beautiful log cabin situated on a hill with stunning views of the surrounding mountains. However, the property is also only accessible by ATV, which means that they must also factor in the cost of purchasing one into their budget.
Finally, Deon and Angie are searching for a family home that can accommodate their growing family and their love of the outdoors. They tour several properties, including one that comes with an ATV already included. However, the property is located in a remote area and requires a 45-minute ATV ride just to get to the driveway. While the family loves the location and the property, they also have to consider the added difficulty of accessing the home on a regular basis.
Throughout the episode, viewers are treated to stunning shots of the Alaskan wilderness, from snowcapped mountains to crystal-clear streams. They also learn about the unique challenges of living in Alaska, such as the need for special equipment like ATVs and snowmobiles in order to navigate the terrain. For those dreaming of a life in the last frontier, "ATV Required" offers a glimpse into what it takes to make that dream a reality.
