A move-in ready aviation lifestyle property with brand new roofs on both the home and hangar has arrived at Pilot Country Estates (X05) in Spring Hill, Florida. This four-bedroom, two-bath pool home offers 1,802 square feet of comfortable living space with runway views, a detached oversized hangar featuring a bonus room with a full bathroom and a two-car garage, and a stunning screened backyard oasis with a free-form pool and heated spa, all just off SR 52 with seamless access to the Tampa Bay area. For pilots who want to step into the Pilot Country Estates home and hangar for sale opportunity without the stress of immediate updates, the September 2026 roof replacements on both structures provide exceptional peace of mind from day one.
A Home Designed for Comfortable Florida Living
The interior of the main residence delivers a practical and comfortable floor plan suited to both daily living and entertaining. The kitchen features a large eat-at bar with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and generous prep space that works equally well for a casual weeknight meal and a post-fly-in gathering with friends. The spacious primary suite provides a genuine retreat, with a large walk-in closet featuring custom closet organizers and an ensuite bath with a walk-in shower and dual shower heads. The three additional bedrooms are positioned on the opposite side of the home, offering privacy for family and guests. One bedroom is currently configured as a home office with a built-in desk and office furniture, providing a dedicated workspace that still functions as a fourth bedroom when needed.
Double pane and double hung windows with recently installed custom plantation shutters add both character and energy efficiency throughout the home. The living area connects directly to the pool deck through an oversized sliding glass door, creating a natural flow between the indoor living space and the outdoor oasis beyond.
The Outdoor Living Package
The backyard is the kind of Florida outdoor space that makes daily life genuinely exceptional. A free-form in-ground pool with a heated spa sits within a fully screened, expansive enclosure that provides room for outdoor furniture, dining, and entertaining across all four Florida seasons. The screened enclosure creates a comfortable, protected environment that keeps the bugs out while keeping the sky and the runway views in.
The Hangar
The detached hangar is the aviation heart of this property and it goes well beyond a simple aircraft storage box. The main hangar measures 42' x 35' and is served by a 40-foot wide bi-fold door, providing solid access for a wide range of general aviation aircraft. The overall hangar building measures 68' x 35' and includes multiple storage areas throughout, including a large storage room in the hangar attic. An attached two-car garage provides additional covered parking and storage completely separate from the aircraft area.
The standout feature of the hangar is the fully built-out bonus room with a complete bathroom. Whether configured as guest quarters, a game room, a home office separate from the residence, a hobby room, a pilot lounge, or potential in-law accommodations, this finished space significantly expands the functional footprint of the property. Combined with the two-car garage attached to the main residence, this property offers an exceptional total package of covered vehicle parking, aircraft storage, and flexible additional space.
Pilot Country Estates Home and Hangar for Sale at a Golf-Cart-Friendly Florida Airpark
Pilot Country Airport (X05) is a privately owned, public-use airpark in Pasco County, Florida, located 13 nautical miles south of Brooksville at 80 feet MSL. Runway 18/36 stretches 3,700 feet by 75 feet on an asphalt surface with low intensity lighting activated on CTAF 122.8, providing reliable day and evening operations for based aircraft. Self-serve 100LL fuel is available 24 hours, and major airframe and powerplant service is available on the field. The community is golf-cart friendly, and the property’s position off SR 52 puts pilots just half a mile from US 41 and approximately 10 miles from I-75, connecting the airpark to the broader Tampa Bay area with straightforward ground access whenever the aircraft stays home.
Tampa International Airport is approximately 45 miles to the south for commercial air connections, and St. Pete-Clearwater International adds additional service options to the southwest. The surrounding Pasco and Hernando County airspace provides open, uncongested VFR flying conditions with year-round access to some of Florida’s most scenic coastal and inland flying destinations.
Florida’s Nature Coast: A Lifestyle Worth Landing For
The Spring Hill and Pasco County location places this property at the gateway to one of Florida’s most celebrated natural regions, commonly known as Florida’s Adventure Coast and the Nature Coast. This stretch of the Gulf Coast is defined by crystal-clear freshwater springs, undeveloped barrier island beaches, protected wildlife habitat, and a quality of outdoor recreation that draws residents and visitors from across the state year-round.
Weeki Wachee Springs State Park, just minutes from the airpark, is one of Florida’s most iconic natural attractions, home to crystal-clear spring waters maintained at a consistent 72 degrees year-round, the world-famous live mermaid shows performed in the spring’s underwater theater, Buccaneer Bay water park, kayaking and paddleboarding along the Weeki Wachee River, and riverboat tours through the surrounding wildlife corridor. The Chassahowitzka National Wildlife Refuge and Chassahowitzka Wildlife Management Area together protect tens of thousands of acres of coastal habitat along the Gulf shoreline, accessible by kayak and canoe through a labyrinth of spring-fed rivers, tidal creeks, and open bays that shelter manatees, bottlenose dolphins, bald eagles, wood storks, roseate spoonbills, and an extraordinary diversity of shorebirds and wading birds. Alfred McKethan Pine Island Park provides direct Gulf beach access at a quiet Pasco County waterfront park ideal for fishing, picnicking, and sunset watching. Bayport Park adds a fishing pier and boat launch for boaters and anglers who want direct Gulf access a short drive from home.
The Hernando Beach waterfront community just to the north offers fresh seafood dining and casual marina-side restaurants along a laid-back Gulf Coast strip that locals favor for weekend afternoons. Capt. Mike’s Seafood and The Blue Pelican are regional dining favorites, and the Nature Coast Botanical Gardens in Spring Hill adds a peaceful horticultural destination to the community’s recreational calendar. The Hernando Heritage Museum in nearby Brooksville preserves the region’s history from its Seminole heritage through the Civil War era and the establishment of the citrus industry that shaped the county’s agricultural identity. Strong Tower Vineyard offers wine tasting in a casual Florida setting for residents who want a wine country experience within easy driving distance.
Tampa, approximately 45 miles to the south, delivers the full amenities of a major Florida city including Busch Gardens Tampa Bay, the Florida Aquarium, Amalie Arena for concerts and professional sports, the Tampa Riverwalk, Ybor City’s vibrant dining and nightlife district, and some of the finest dining in the southeastern United States. Crystal River, 30 miles to the north, offers world-class manatee swimming and scalloping in Kings Bay, and the Withlacoochee State Forest to the east provides hundreds of miles of hiking, cycling, and equestrian trails through some of central Florida’s most pristine inland wilderness.
For a pilot-owner who wants a move-in ready home with a fully equipped hangar, a screened pool and spa, brand new roofs on both structures, and a location in one of Florida’s most naturally rich and recreationally diverse coastal communities, this property at Pilot Country Estates delivers an extraordinary value proposition in the Tampa Bay aviation real estate market.
