Nestled on nearly 160 acres in an undeveloped part of northern Oakland County, potential home buyers will find something not seen very often: A home with its own private airport.

Known as the Sky Ranch, the home features the last private airport in Oakland County, two hangar bays, lawn-quality grass landing strips and a separate 5-car attached garage. Located in Oxford Township, it's listed for $3.9 million with Realtor Dan Gutfreund of Signature Sotheby's International Realty.

"The Sky Ranch, as we call it, is one of a dwindling number of private airports," said owner Philip Handleman.

The house itself spans 4,789 square feet and was designed by Neumann Smith. It has four bedrooms, five bathrooms, wildflower fields and more. 

"The grounds are punctuated by beautiful gardens, orchards, a wooded nature preserve, and farmland," said Handleman.
