Property Description
Are you an aviator looking for a home with a runway? This is it. The runway, known as Northbrook International Ultraport (1NC9), is FAA-approved and licensed for flight instruction for ultralight and STOL (short takeoff and landing) aircraft. The parcel includes two rough-built hangars (pole barn style) with space for up to seven small aircraft. There are no usage restrictions beyond county R-SF zoning, offering flexibility for aviation, residential, or entrepreneurial pursuits.
The residence, built in 1930 and thoughtfully evolved over time, offers 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, and 2,183 heated square feet on 1.86 acres. Originally a 3-bedroom, 1-bath home with four fireplaces, its layout has been reimagined to enhance flow and functionality. One bedroom now serves as the updated bathroom, while the former bath became a laundry/utility room. Two bedrooms were combined into a spacious primary with a large closet, and a cozy room off the living area serves as a second bedroom with its own closet. This room has been used as an office.
Craftsmanship and care are evident throughout. The kitchen features solid oak cabinetry, complemented by a built-in china cabinet in the dining room. Levolor blinds and replacement windows offer comfort and efficiency, while the red metal roof adds visual charm—especially from the air. The enclosed back porch, heated and cooled, contributes 184 square feet to the total living area. Additional updates include a carport, heat pump, and electric tankless water heater. Three fireplaces remain usable with chimney extension or gas logs, and pull-down stairs lead to a floored attic for extra storage. Constructed from rough-cut heart pine and solid oak, the home has “great bones” and invites creative use.
Note: While the home has received thoughtful updates, it remains a work in progress. A good cleaning and a few repairs may make it suitable for office or transitional use, but buyers seeking a permanent residence should expect additional improvements. The property is offered as-is, and the owner may consider price flexibility to support needed updates.
Whether used as a residence, office space, or part of a broader home-based business (per county R-SF zoning), the house anchors a property rich with potential. The adjoining acreage includes a well-maintained grass runway and ample space for expansion—be it a new home, hangar, or recreational retreat.
The runway will be deed protected and cannot be closed. Permanent access and usage rights will be granted to both the residence at 2491 Hwy 274 (Parcel ID: 50912) and the neighboring home (Parcel ID: 10602). Use of the runway is optional, but the right to use it remains—ensuring long-term aviation viability for future owners. Buyers may charge for runway use or coordinate maintenance contributions.
Altogether, this offering includes 21± acres with a 1200' runway, plus a character-filled home on 1.86 acres, and two pole-barn type hangars (dirt floor) with space for up to seven small aircraft. The owner is motivated and negotiable, open to creative offers.
