John Travolta's Airport Mansion
Picture a residential development in Florida. Now picture it with an aircraft runway capable of accommodating planes as large as a Boeing 737. That can only be Jumbolair, an exclusive gated community with a resident movie star and certified private pilot, John Travolta.
John Travolta and his lovely wife Kelly Preston was one of the first couples to purchase land in the Jumbolair Aviation Estates, the residential airpark where they live. Actor is a flight enthusias and certified private pilot who owns five aircraft and an astonishing 16-car garage, so it’s only fitting that the John Travolta's house has two runways that lead directly to his front door! “We designed the house for the jets and to have at our access the world at a moment’s notice, and we succeeded at that,” John Travolta said Australia's "Today".
The 550-acre community just north of Ocala is on the market for $10.5 million. The price tag includes the country’s largest private lighted runway, the five-bedroom Muriel Vanderbilt mansion with a swimming pool and fitness center with original Nautilus equipment, a conference center/banquet hall with seating for up to 400 guests, a nearly 90,000-square-foot warehouse complex, and Jumbolair Aviation Estates subdivision, a 38-lot private aviation residential development with deeded access to the runway. But what inside it and how they live? Lets take a virtual visit.
