Property Description
Fly Home to Freedom and Comfort - Your Private Airpark Retreat For pilots who crave the perfect blend of aviation convenience and relaxed country living, this Airpark property is the real deal. From the moment you touch down on your own private lighted concrete runway-measuring approximately 5,000 feet long and 60 feet wide-you'll know you've found a place designed with aviators in mind. For those who enjoy the grass under their wheels, there's also a beautifully maintained 3,000-foot by 250-foot sod cross strip, giving you flexibility for different aircraft and flying preferences. Just 25 minutes from Gainesville, 15 minutes to Alachua, and under an hour to Jacksonville, this location puts you close to everything, yet far enough to enjoy the quiet freedom of country skies. Taxi from the runway straight onto your large concrete apron and into a spacious, fully insulated 3,000-square-foot hangar. The hydraulic Hydro Swing door makes it easy to house your aircraft or vintage car collection, and inside the hangar, a private, foam-insulated one-bedroom, one-bath apartment offers a perfect spot for visiting friends, family, or fellow aviators. The main home is just as impressive. Built with energy efficiency and practicality in mind, the custom brick house embraces a wide-open floor plan and has recently undergone a series of major upgrades. The kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom have all been tastefully renovated, blending modern style with smart design. A brand-new insulated water system ensures comfort and reliability year-round, and an advanced alarm and video surveillance system adds peace of mind whether you're at home or away on a cross-country flight. Step inside and you'll find a fully furnished interior that's ready to welcome you-right down to the included golf cart for quick trips around the property. Storage space is abundant, making everyday living and long-term stays equally convenient. Outdoors, the property shines with fruit and nut trees including pecans, persimmons, pears, figs, and blueberries, all maintained with an automated drip irrigation system that makes gardening practically effortless. And if you're looking for a little more room to grow, the adjacent 1.67-acre lot is available for purchase for an additional $ 40,000, offering even more flexibility to expand your airpark dream. This is more than just a place to live-it's a lifestyle built for those who love to fly. Call today to schedule a showing and experience the freedom of having your own runway right outside your front door.
