Hangar homes — custom residences built alongside personal aircraft hangars — are gaining popularity among pilots and aviation enthusiasts. These fly-in community homes allow owners to live with their aircraft, eliminating the commute to the airport and offering the freedom of direct runway access from home.

As a long-time hangar home designer and a resident of an airpark community, I’ve had the opportunity to witness and contribute to the growth of this remarkable way of life. Here’s a look at the evolution of the hangar home lifestyle, and how specialized design helps bring it to life.

The Growth of Hangar Homes in the U.S.

In 2005, there were around 500 residential airparks across the country, ranging from private strips to large-scale developments. Today, that number has grown to nearly 700.

This steady expansion reflects increasing interest in aviation home design — and by some estimates, between 4,000 and 6,000 hangar homes have been built since 2005.

Discover how hangar home design brings together aviation and lifestyle. Explore the joys, challenges, and key considerations of building your own fly-in residence.

For pilots, the idea of taxiing your airplane right into your home isn’t just a dream—it’s a lifestyle I’ve lived and perfected for over 20 years. I’ve been designing hangar homes—aviation homes—for two decades, building on decades more of crafting high-end homes and commercial spaces. Hangar homes aren’t just about merging a house with a hangar; they’re about integrating your passion for flight into every day. From taxiing to your doorstep to juggling plane maintenance at home, it’s a mix of exhilaration and practicality that I wouldn’t trade for anything.

The Joys: Wings at Your Doorstep

Picture this: you wake up, grab a coffee, and step into your hangar—sometimes a workshop, sometimes a garage for motorhomes or other toys—and there’s your plane, ready to roll. I fly in and out of my neighborhood routinely—mostly for business, sometimes just because—and I never get tired of the thrill.
