Warm and inviting 3/2 brick home with large hangar on 1.77 acres is offered only to licensed pilots who own an airplane! Enjoy the view from your living room with wood burning fireplace and cathedral ceiling with exposed beams. Windows at the front and back of the home go all the way to the top for lots of natural light. Wide plank, solid hardwood floors are beautiful and made to last. See and feel the quality. The primary suite is 20×20 with a fireplace and opens through French doors to the huge Florida room looking out to an in-ground saltwater pool. Paver decking leads you beyond the private courtyard to the 50×60 hangar. With a door opening of 50×14’8” or higher, you can store your airplane and also fit an RV and/or boat. There’s so much more! Attached to the hangar are an over-sized 2 car garage and an apartment with full kitchen, full bath and laundry– ideal for guests, extended family or pilot quarters. Want to change your own oil? There’s a maintenance pit with water and power! Need more storage? Check out the full basement! New shingle roof was installed on both the house and hangar in 2019. Whole house solar panels installed in 2025 will keep the electric bill low. The lease will be pre-payed by the seller for the next 24 years! Property is on well and septic– no water or sewer bills! Taxi from your home to the north/south runway, a reinforced and lighted grass strip 6200 x 165. Many activities await the new owner such as fly-in’s and weekly fly-out’s with blue skies all year long. Non-aviation activities include art, bingo, exercise, music events, hangar happy hours, motorcycle rides, etc. Celebrate the holidays with your neighbors in our Red Barn Community Center. Golf enthusiasts will love the beautiful 18 hole course nearby. Low, low HOA fees, only $2930 year.. Don’t wait, make this house your forever home. Priced right so you can update to your style!
