About this home
Brand new penthouse condo with 10th-floor river and sunset views in Brevard's first true fly-in resort community, River Fly-In. This 2024-built 2BD/2BA residence offers 10-ft ceilings, modern tile throughout, and Schwinco 9000 double-pane, UV- and sound-rated impact windows plus expansive three-panel stacking glass doors for seamless indoor-outdoor living. The bright living area opens to a large balcony overlooking Sykes Creek and 25 acres of conservation, where you can watch planes, wildlife, boats and rocket launches all in the same day. Steps from Merritt Island Airport with easy access to runway, tie-downs and nearby private hangar options, this community is designed for pilots and aviation enthusiasts seeking a lock-and-leave Florida base. Resort-style amenities include a heated pool, spa, sauna, fitness center, two-story clubhouse with theater, EV charging, nature trails and gated, secured access. Split bedroom plan w/ tranquil primary suite, walk-in closet and spa-inspired bath Welcome to River Fly-In, Brevard County's first true fly-in condo community, where river views, runway activity and rocket launches intersect on Florida's Space Coast. This brand new 10th-floor penthouse offers a front-row seat with sweeping vistas over Sykes Creek, approximately 25 acres of surrounding conservation land, and the constant motion of planes and boats against the backdrop of launch pads to the north.
Inside, the residence lives like modern new construction with 10-foot ceilings and sleek tile flooring throughout. Schwinco 9000 double-pane, UV- and sound-rated impact windows and expansive three-panel stacking glass doors are designed to enhance energy efficiency and significantly reduce outside noise while framing the view. These doors open wide to create seamless indoor-outdoor living and make the oversized balcony feel like an extension of the great room.
The open concept main living area is oriented to the water. A contemporary kitchen with soft-close cabinetry and stone countertops connects to the dining and living spaces, all focused on the balcony and Sykes Creek beyond. With the panels open, the transition from interior to exterior is nearly level, giving you a large, usable outdoor living space for morning coffee, sunset dinners and watching summer storms roll up the river.
A split bedroom layout provides privacy for owners and guests. The primary suite features waterfront views, a walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bath with modern finishes. The secondary bedroom and bath sit across the unit, ideal for visiting friends and family. Newer-construction fire protection, structural systems and accessibility features offer peace of mind compared to older coastal buildings.
River Fly-In was conceived around its location immediately adjacent to Merritt Island Airport, making it especially attractive to private pilots and aviation enthusiasts. Residents benefit from a lighted runway next door, access to flight services, and the ability to rent hangars or tie-downs at the airport for private aircraft. For an owner-pilot, the appeal is straightforward: land at Merritt Island, secure your aircraft, and be home within minutes. For buyers who fly in for business, seasonal stays or frequent Space Coast visits, this residence serves as a practical base with quick access to their plane.
River Fly-In's amenity package is closer to a resort than a typical condo complex. The community offers a resort-style heated swimming pool, spa/hot tub, sauna and an outdoor area with seating that encourages owners and guests to linger around the water. A two-story clubhouse anchors the property with a fitness center, theater room with large screen and reclining seating, and flexible spaces for games, social events and gatherings. There are walking paths and nature trails on the property that wind through the natural areas between the condos and Sykes Creek, giving residents a way to experience the conservation land up close.
Plans for the broader River Fly-In project have included construction of multiple airplane hangars and a limited number of boat slips for residents, as well as a potential future waterfront restaurant.
River Fly-In allows short-term rentals using in-house management, which distinguishes it from many coastal condo associations with stricter policies. This flexibility can be appealing to buyers who want a personal vacation condo that also generates income when not in use, intend to operate an aviation-themed or Space Coast-themed vacation rental, or need a property that can function both as a second home and an investment asset....
