To anyone looking to try their hand at the Alaskan Bush People way of life, you’re in luck!
According to Soap Dirt, the 29.11-acres of Alaskan land formerly owned by Billy Brown and his famous family is on the market and can be yours for just $795,000.
According to the Zillow listing, Browntown is located on Chichagoff Island, approximately 15 miles from the town of Hoonah, Alaska. The site features the family’s main house, Matt and Bam Bam‘s respective huts and, of course, Bear‘s treehouse.
As fans of ‘Alaskan Bush People’ may recall, Billy, his wife Ami and their children relocated out of Alaska and left Browntown following Ami’s 2017 cancer diagnosis. Though Ami’s cancer is now in remission, her doctors reportedly do not want her living so far off of the grid as a precaution in the event that her cancer returns.
A 2015 episode of ‘Alaskan Bush People’ showed the Browns moving into the house. At the time, Ami said that it was “definitely the house of my dreams.”
“Looking around at what we did and what we achieved out in the middle of nowhere, it feels good,” Matt said during the episode.
Following Ami’s cancer battle though, Billy publicly stated that he and his family can never live in Alaska again.
Critics of ‘Alaska Bush People’ argue that the Brown family aren’t technically living “off the grid” year-round to begin with and are in Browntown only when filming the show… and living comfortably in the suburbs otherwise.
The new season of ‘Alaskan Bush People’ premieres Wednesday, December 4 on Discovery.
Watch the video below to see a flashback clip of the Browns moving into Browntown!

Typical of most reality yarns!!!!!! Mostly b.s. with little truth. Surprised Discovery continued with these lies after several members were guilty of community theft, monies that could hae/should have went to the real people .
What a joke, who the hell is going to pay over 3 quarters of a million dollars for 30 acres with a little house on it? Considering Billy bought over 400 acres for a little over half that price, I’d say they’re asking a bit too much for a place just because they lived there. Unless land on that Island is insanely expensive. For that amount of money you could find a much better deal in almost every state.
I’m from the uk where car I get details on brown town for sale
Hey I love the show and no matter what is or is not real it’s called reality Tv. Come on the show is awesome and makes you feel as part of the family. I would love to visit them all. That’s not happening owell I can dream on.
Never been a fan of reality television, for precisely the reason that critics of this show have pointed out. Looks like they have a new location now, so I guess the narrative goes on.
3/4 mil for a pad with cardboard wallpaper, I’M IN.
stay lit
Isn’t that place known for having the highest bear population? Who would want to live on a bear infested island? Or was that another lie?
That is one bizarre bloody family, have do they have all those kids and live in a single room?
No they don’t. First they didn’t really live there when not filming. The 3 oldest sons had their shacks. The two daughters had bedrooms upstairs. Now supposedly none of them really live together except I think the parents and the two daughters. I read Noah and his wife really live in Colorado. Bam bam resides in the Bahamas with his girlfriend. Matt is in California with his girlfriend. Bear may live with them part time but he said he will visit his Texas often to see his child. Gabe married a woman who already had two children and now they are expecting their first child together. So I am pretty sure he has his own place for his growing family in Washington.
Wait… so we have pay so much for a place They never stayed on this piece of land. They were staying at Lodge here in Hoonah, three meals a day!
Do you really live near there? Was anything they filmed real? Did they help build any of those structures? The tire house? Was Kenny even real? I liked him and Matt.
