Most people open their garage doors to pull their cars out. But residents in one Justin, TX, neighborhood do that to retrieve their airplanes.

So for anyone in the market for a fly-in/fly-out property, have we’ve got a home for you.

The place in the Propwash Airport community, on appropriately named Cessna Road, is ready for takeoff. Priced at $1.7 million, the property combines a high-end home with the convenience of an attached hangar on the runway.

Luxe living quarters

“With most hangar properties, you don’t find a lot that are as luxurious as this one in the living quarters,” explains listing agent Mariana Pearson, with Keller Williams Central. “Not only is a pilot—or someone who loves aviation of any sort—going to have the hangar literally attached to their home, but they will have luxury living that goes with it.”

The three-bedroom, two-bath residence has about 2,600 square feet and more than enough space to whip up favorite recipes.

“You’ve actually got two kitchens,” Pearson notes. “The downstairs kitchen is kind of like the main kitchen, and then upstairs you have a full kitchen, as well. It’s great for entertainment or a guest suite.”

She adds that this area would be a perfect short-term rental for a pilot.

The hangar home was built in 2001, but the current owners remodeled it within the last two years.

“If you were to step inside, you’ll understand just how just how great it is,” Pearson insists. “It just feels very inviting.”

The backyard has a privacy fence, fire pit, and swim spa, which allows you to “turn it on and do laps,” she says.

A place for your planes

The hangar is about 3,000 square feet and is attached to the living space.

“It’s essentially like a big garage,” Pearson explains. You walk out the door, and there’s your hangar. I was told you can probably fit three planes, depending on the size of the aircraft.”

The 1-acre property sits just off the runway of the private airport, which is available to the public. The HOA maintains the runway for a monthly $73 fee, but there are no public facilities.

For the “people landing there, it may be like a pit stop, or they’re there to see friends or some sort of gathering,” Pearson says. “We’ve actually had [listing] agents who get in a plane, and they land right outside of the hangar, and they show the home that way.”

Pearson says many, but not all, residents in the neighborhood own planes.

“I think that the perfect buyer is going to be not necessarily someone who has a plane but someone who loves aviation enough to have that desire to want to live on a landing strip or an airport,” she says. It’s “someone who’s looking for that luxurious lifestyle on top of needing or wanting a hangar space.”
