Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty to Market Aviation Pioneer William P. Lear, Jr.’s Spruce Creek Fly-In Luxury Estate

ORLANDO, Fla. --- Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty has been named exclusive sales and marketing agents for the Spruce Creek Fly-In luxury estate owned by the late aviation pioneer William P. Lear, Jr. who assisted in the development of the iconic Learjet.

Roger Soderstrom, founder and owner of Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty, said the Lear estate is located at 1780 Doolittle Court in the Spruce Creek Fly-In community in Port Orange, and is the last residence of one of the most famous luminaries in aviation history who still holds the record as the youngest pilot to have flown the WWII Lockheed P-38 Fighter.

Soderstrom said International Luxury Home Specialists Rachel McGrath and Debbie Keilin are representing the property and serve as principal contacts for prospective buyers.

The estate, listed for sale for $945,000, offers 3,222 square feet of air-conditioned living space with four bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths and it has an attached 50' x 40' air-conditioned airplane hangar with direct access to a taxi way and main runway.

“The residence is a European-inspired Mediterranean retreat,” Keilin said. “It’s the prefect place for casual entertaining as well as formal affairs.”

The home opens onto a tropical oasis lanai, swimming pool and spa with cascading waterfalls and flagstone terrace, McGrath explained.

Additional amenities include hurricane shutters throughout and a full house and hangar generator.

Bill Lear’s personal story of military heroics, tales of the Learjet, undercover assignments and numerous wives is chronicled in his memoir: Fly Fast...Sin Boldly Flying, Spying & Surviving.

Spruce Creek is one of the country’s premiere gated, country club, fly-in communities with 4,000 feet of private, paved runway, 18-hole championship golf course, racquet and tennis center along with fine and informal dining.
