On December 26th 2008 we poured a foundation to a new hangar home. On January 21, 2009 my 59th birthday Laura and I received our certificate of occupancy. We still have some bits of work to do noticably landscaping but its good to be done.
For those who did'nt notice the other threads on this and who care heres what we did. We got a building lot on a small grass strip (FD92) community on the shore of Lake Harney Florida. The strip side has a 45ft X 14.5 ft hydraulic door with a wrap around porch built onto it. See the video here.
The home is built inside of a 50X60 steel building. The eves are 23 feet and the peak about 30. The hangar is 1500 square feet and open to the peak. The living quarters side faces lake harney. It is just under 2800 square feet.
Here are way more pics than you care to see. Some of these may have been sprinkled in other posts but I wanted to get them all in one place.
Here is the strip with our house from my gyro on approach. We were still under construction.
This is the hangar side of the house
This is the right hand side of the hangar. The door goes into a workshop.
We have some odd things flying around the hangar.
More odd things (the Silver Surfer is the life size standee from the Fantastic Four Rise of the Silver Surfer on a 7 foot surf board)
This is a small air conditioned shop if i need to get out of the heat to work on something.
This is the toy box side of the hangar.
The left door comes into the home the right into a hangar bathroom.
The hangar bathroom.
