DREAM. ENVISION. DESIGN. Part One of The Riverside Homes Custom Design Process – A Unique Experience
The term “dream home” is used often. But the definition lies within the imagination of the homeowner. The reality of building the “dream home” lies within the builder’s ability to design exactly what the homebuilder envisions and desires.
Riverside Homes Custom, known internationally as the Builder of the Southern Living Idea House, has built numerous “dream homes.” One of the most recent is located in the Ocean Ridge community. Just steps from the Atlantic Ocean, this home started with a list of desires.
The owners, who have been traveling to St. Augustine for vacations for many years from Sweden decided it was the perfect backdrop for their new home. While our Riverside Homes Custom team worked with them to create the home they had always envisioned, the process became more complicated. The COVID pandemic added a layer of complexity but not one that caused any issues or delays. Without the ability to travel to St. Augustine, the homebuyers were unable to see in-person the lot clearing, attend pre-construction meetings, walk-throughs at various stages, pool construction, and many other pivotal moments during the homebuilding process. However, our Riverside Homes Custom team provided ways for the homebuyers to virtually attend and participate ensuring no detail was left unaddressed. “We understand the level of expectation each of our homebuyers have,” shared Matt Birdwell, President of Riverside Homes Custom, “Every stage of our unique process provides checks and balances to ensure every detail is executed. And we provide communication tools that benefits homebuyers who are 10 miles away or 10,000 miles away. These processes proved to be almost flawless and extremely beneficial in delivering this house for our homebuyers who were halfway across the world.”
This stunning dream home encompassed two lots the homebuyers purchased to have ample space for their home and resort-worthy pool with swim shelf, pool house, full pool bath, Summer Kitchen and outdoor shower.
“Every home is a dream home for our buyers. The place you raise families, create memories and spend your hard-earned income building should feel like an oasis and place you love to spend time in,” said Birdwell, “At Riverside Homes Custom, we listen to your desires, understand how you live and find the perfect way to build what YOUR dream home is.”
