About this home

PRICE REDUCED + BRAND-NEW HANGAR DOOR! A rare opportunity to own a runway-front home in the highly sought-after South Lakeland Airport Community (X49)—where you can step out your back door, roll out the hangar, and take to the skies. Set on nearly one acre directly along the runway, this distinctive Florida property combines aviation access, generous indoor and outdoor living spaces, and room for virtually every toy in your collection. Inside, the spacious split-bedroom floor plan feels open and welcoming, with soaring vaulted ceilings, warm wood beams, and a wood-burning fireplace anchoring the main living area. The kitchen is designed for gathering, featuring a large granite island with prep sink, abundant counter space, and an adjoining casual dining area ideal for entertaining family and friends. The private primary suite offers a comfortable retreat with a spacious walk-in closet and en-suite bath. Recent improvements give the home a fresh, updated feel, including a brand-new hangar door, fresh interior paint, updated cabinet hardware, modern fixtures, refreshed trim and baseboards, plus a metal roof installed in 2024. Outside is where the Florida lifestyle truly takes flight. An expansive covered lanai overlooking the runway provides a front-row seat to aircraft arrivals and departures and an incredible setting for morning coffee, sunset cocktails, or entertaining. The privately fenced heated pool and spa create your own backyard oasis for year-round enjoyment. For the aviator, collector, or hobbyist, the concrete-block hangar is an exceptional feature. Measuring approximately 40’ x 30’ with an estimated 38’ x 10’ door opening, it offers plenty of space for an aircraft along with vehicles, recreational equipment, workshop projects, or additional storage. Add two separate two-car garages, a carport, and generous driveway parking, and there is truly room for the airplane, cars, boat, RV, and more. Located directly on South Lakeland Airpark (X49), with its approximately 2,412’ x 100’ grass runway and 400-foot displaced threshold, this home offers convenient runway access while keeping you centrally positioned between Tampa and Orlando. Lakeland Linder International Airport—home of the world-renowned SUN ’n FUN Aerospace Expo—is also just a short drive away. This is more than a home—it’s an opportunity to embrace the Florida aviation lifestyle. Whether you’re an active pilot, aviation enthusiast, or simply looking for a one-of-a-kind property with exceptional space and amenities, this runway-front retreat offers something increasingly hard to find. Your hangar. Your pool. Your runway. Your Florida lifestyle—all right outside your door.
