If the question is where to find a home in the sky, Greenpoint Technologies has an answer. The Kirkland, Wash.-based completion and refurbishment center recently unveiled its SkyHome 2010 concept design for an executive version of Boeing’s 787 Dreamliner.

The company describes it as “the latest concept in ultra-luxury real estate, a live-aboard yacht in the sky. According to Greenpoint creative director Greg Vander Houwen, motivation for the project was provided by clients who were spending more time on their private aircraft and requesting features that mirrored the functionality found in their homes.

Among the “amenities” in this 4,000-sq-ft cabin are a walk-in wine cellar or humidor and an airborne garage for the ground-bound toys, thereby proving Greenpoint’s claim with regard to your home, “You can take it with you.”
