A Cheyenne might work, but for one pilot, six passengers & bags on a semi-regular basis a King Air 90 might be a better option. Also maybe a turbine 400-series Cessna with the wing spar fix complied with?

If only 6 total seats are necessary, another option to look into besides the Cheyenne would be a Beech Duke with the Royal Turbine PT6 conversion...I understand from an acquaintance who flies one these things have spectacular performance (and do away with the Duke's engine-related maintenance issues).

Any of the small turbine twins will likely run from $500k-$1M...with suitable six-place piston twin options (BE58, CE340/414, PA31) in the $200-$500k range.
