Highlights and unique perks of living in an aviation community
Houses near the airfield have large garages that can double as aircraft hangars, and aviation enthusiasts can park their planes like cars in front of their homes. This also means pilots can taxi their planes from private driveways to the airstrip. According to Diana Spino, broker at Kala American Realty, “If a homebuyer builds a new home or reconstructs a property by the runway, they are required to build a hangar, even if they don’t own a plane.”
Home prices and HOA fees in Sierra Sky Park
While it’s all single-family houses, properties in Sierra Sky Park are set in subdivision pockets and span a wide price range. “The whole area east of the airport is mostly higher-end million-dollar homes, and west of the airport are more entry-level houses that start in the $300,000s range,” says Catherine Sawatsky , broker at Cygnus Estates with 20 years of experience. Houses on the west side range from the mid-$300,000s to the mid-$700,000s. Many larger homes on the east side are in gated communities, and prices are typically between the lower $700,000s and $1.7 million. For most subdivisions, HOA fees are generally under $200 a month. Amenities can include things like golf or club house access and 24-hour security for gated communities.
