Hill country airports-hangers
West of Austin? Paved? That is a hard one.
Native Austinite myself and I had been looking for the same. I gave up and went further west 2 Years ago and I found a nice 3800' paved lighted airstrip, in a gated community. I purchased a 4 acre lot on the airfield. It is located outside of Fredricksburg about and hour and 1/2, to 2 hours west of Austin. It is now sold out. I noticed a resale (40 acre lot) on the internet the other day.

Spicewood is just about it. (paved 1 hour from Austin and allows a hanger apartment) I do not know if they have any lots left. I gave up the hunt in the Austin area, and besides Austin is just getting to big for me. (If we could just turn the clock back to the mid 70s before Michael Dell brought all the high techies in..)
I know of a 1900' gravel strip 5 miles south of San Marcos. The owner is interested in selling hanger home lots. 7TS2 it is listed as a 1300 foot strip, but was just increased to 1900.
There are some grass strips that have home sites around Austin. Most of these have restrictions for 75%masonry homes with hangers. Not hanger apartments.
Lakeway 3R9 might have some home sites on the resale side. Do not know if they would allow a hanger apartment.
Same with 4XS7 Horse Shoe Bay they had a landing fee.
Cross Country Estates 07TS is turf
Breakaway Park 40XS they might have paved this one but it was turf the last time I was there. Residential with home sites, no known hanger apartments.
Sunrise Beach 2KL turf no lots for sale on the strip when I was up there a couple of years ago, could be some resales now.
Lago Vista 5R3. Confussing on the Hanger Apartments. I know of some but, I was told that the other lots for sale restricted against it. and did not see any that were forsale when I was looking.
I recently learned of a new airstrip community out of San Antonio in Comfort Texas, looks nice but it looks restricted to homes with hangers.

I have been trying to get my brother who is in commercial Real Estate to develop a nice strip west of Austin, but he says something about having to have lots and lots of money to get it going...with the real estate prices around here.
