About this home
8727 SE 72ND AVENUE
Finally! The perfect AIRPARK property. The one you've been waiting for, completely updated, huge hangar located directly ON THE RUNWAY in the Leeward Air Ranch! It shows like a model home and will not last at this price. What a VIEW from the home's upper deck BALCONY or from the patio below with an in-ground HOT TUB. Take in all the flying activity just north of mid-field in this active community of almost 200 hangar homes. The 60' x 60' HANGAR is open to an attached 20' x 57' GARAGE. Room to store several planes, boats, cars and even tall enough for most RV's with the 49' wide by 13'-6" high door. N/S RUNWAY is lighted, 6200' x 165' reinforced turf. The modern farmhouse style home is COMPLETELY NEW inside and coordinates perfectly with the exterior, a CUSTOM Barn design with board and batten wood siding and Gambrel roof. Inside, the kitchen has beautiful cabinetry, STONE counters and tile backsplash, SS top of the line appliances. Kitchen is open to the great room with exposed WOOD BEAMS and stone FIREPLACE. French doors with automatic shades lead out to the open PATIO and vinyl fenced side yard. Back inside, you will not believe the newly added first floor primary! Almost 800 square feet of relaxation with a sitting area, walk-in closet and FRENCH DOORS. Ensuite spa bath features a CLAW FOOT TUB adorned with CHANDELIER above. There is a separate shower, a second walk-in closet and double sinks all utilizing a dedicated HVAC and TANKLESS hot water heater. Upstairs are 2 amazing guest suites, large bedrooms each having their own full bath and access to the balcony overlooking the runway. Back downstairs, you will find an interior laundry room and a 1/2 bath convenient to the hangar. New lighting fixtures inside and out, even in the hangar. Buyer will be given the first option to purchase the adjacent ONE ACRE LOT right on the runway. In addition to the many AVIATION ACTIVITIES there is a book club, music group, game nights, movie nights and more at the RED BARN community center. Gather there for all the holidays where neighbors become life long friends. BIKE the Santos Trails, KAYAK the Silver River or play a round of GOLF at the nearby 18 hole course. There is plenty of dining and entertainment in Ocala and The Villages. We are centrally located, so it's a short drive or an even shorter flight to either COAST for a day at the BEACH! Low, low HOA fees! This exclusive property is offered only to licensed PILOTS who own an airplane.

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.

It is generated from public records, listing data and market modeling, and is subject to change once a licensed real estate professional personally inspects the property.
