A Turnkey One-Level Home in Railroad Springs
2196 W Alaska Ave is a 3-bedroom, 2-bath, 1,080 sq ft single-level manufactured home in Flagstaff’s Railroad Springs neighborhood, listed at $440,000. It sits on a partially fenced 0.16-acre lot among Ponderosa pines, with city water, public sewer, and a paved street.
