Set your heading for Mogollon Airpark (AZ82) — Arizona’s premier high-country fly-in community at 6,658 feet elevation, just 90 nautical miles northeast of Phoenix. With its blend of modern aviation living, strong pilot camaraderie, and year-round accessibility, Mogollon is quickly gaining altitude as the #1 airpark in Arizona.
This mountain retreat is more than a base — it’s a lifestyle runway surrounded by towering pines, mild weather, and a welcoming crowd of aviators who truly understand what it means to “live where you fly.”
Contemporary Airpark Home with Modern Finishes
Built in 2021, this 2,796 sq ft contemporary airpark home at Mogollon Airpark offers clean design lines and a spacious open-concept layout perfect for entertaining or relaxing after a cross-country flight. Vaulted ceilings, granite countertops, a walk-in pantry, and triple-pane tilt-and-turn windows make this residence both stylish and energy-efficient.
On the main level, you’ll find three bedrooms including a luxury primary suite, while the upper level adds a flexible space that was updated in 2025 — now featuring a new full bath and kitchenette, ideal for a separate living area, guest bunkhouse, or flight-planning retreat. The five-zone mini-split system keeps every room perfectly balanced for comfort after a long flight.
The Hangar Every Pilot Dreams About
The property includes a 2,000 sq ft (40' x 50') insulated hangar, built for the serious aviator. It’s equipped with a 42' x 12' Horton Stacker Accordion Door (39' usable opening**), natural light windows, and a full bathroom complete with bathtub.
There’s also a high-lift garage door for vehicles, making this the ultimate multi-use hangar for aircraft, tools, or even your side-by-side ATV. Pilots appreciate the efficiency and clean design of this layout — everything you need for a smooth preflight or winter aircraft maintenance.
*** Tip: If your wingspan needs a little more clearance, contact the agent — we may have a door-mod solution for you.
