Country Aire is an all-ages land-lease manufactured-home community off Clay Pit Road in East Tampa, in the East Lake-Orient Park area of unincorporated Hillsborough County, in the 33610 ZIP. Public listing sources describe a community established in the 1970s with around sixty home sites and paved streets.
The defining feature is the ownership structure. In a land-lease community you typically own the manufactured home but rent the lot it sits on, so the monthly lot rent, what it includes, and the lease terms are central to the cost of living there. That also shapes financing, because a manufactured home on leased land is usually financed differently from a site-built house on owned land. Confirm the lot rent, the lease, and what conveys for any specific home.
The appeal is an affordable, well-located entry point. East Lake-Orient Park sits roughly seven miles northeast of downtown Tampa with quick access to I-4, I-75, and US 301, putting downtown, Brandon, Busch Gardens, and the airport within a manageable drive. The all-ages policy and lot-rent model are the core of the value proposition.
For buyers who want an affordable, centrally located manufactured home and are comfortable with a land-lease structure, Country Aire is one of the options in East Tampa. The work is reading the lot rent, the lease terms, the home, and its title and financing honestly before you buy.
