DREAM. ENVISION. DESIGN. Part Two of The Riverside Homes Custom Design Process – How It Works
Maybe your dream home is 3,000 square feet filled with all of the custom upgrades on a waterfront lot. Maybe your family dream home is twice that size complete with expansive porches and outdoor living area along the river. Whatever your definition of “dream home” is, our Riverside Homes Custom team has the experience, talent and vision to make it a reality.
One of our most recent homes in St. Augustine designed for a couple who lived 5,000 miles away in Sweden embodies the process and the ability to capture exactly what a homebuyer desires and make it come to life.
This stunning residence includes 4,621 square feet of living space. The owners knew they wanted their master suite on the first floor so they can age into the home but also have it convenient to the home’s greatest assets, the outdoor living areas. Equally as important to the large family room, study off the impressive front entry, and all of the custom upgrades are the almost 2,000 square feet of porches. The front porch is just calling for rocking chairs to enjoy the mornings with a cup of coffee, the afternoons with a glass of cold iced tea or the evenings with a favorite cocktail. The upstairs porch area provides a private retreat for guests to enjoy the ocean air and Florida views. The dream for this home also included a resort-worthy custom designed pool with shelf, pool house, full pool bath, Summer Kitchen and outdoor shower.
How does the Riverside Homes Custom team do it? It starts with a conversation. Our team sits down with your family and through the conversation we learn details about how you live, where you desire to live, what elements of the home are most important to you and what is your budget. As we learn more about the home you dream to live in, we begin to design the elevation, the floorplan and maximize every square inch of the home for function and design.
And throughout the process, the key is communication. “Despite being thousands of miles away, we were able to deliver exactly what this couple desired thanks to our talented and award-winning team and the communication program we use,” shared Matt Birdwell, President of Riverside Homes Custom, “Our construction management software keeps the homebuyers up-to-date on all of the progress being made on the home while also reminding them of what is coming down the line.” The Riverside Homes Custom team places a priority on delighting our homebuyers – it’s a critical part to our success.
Sometimes homebuyers are able to design their dream home but have more difficulty in finding the perfect place as the canvas to build it. Our Riverside Homes Custom team is happy to assist you in finding that ideal lot. Riverside Homes Custom has stamped our product across some of the most luxurious and prestigious communities across Northeast Florida, including Ponte Vedra Beach, Atlantic Beach, Jacksonville Beach and along the St. Johns River.
This stunning home in St. Augustine Beach is similar to many homes Riverside Homes Custom has built but like every home, it is also meticulously unique because it is inspired by the people who live in it. “We are a true custom homebuilder,” Birdwell said, “As proven through our work building the Southern Living Idea House with custom features in every room of the home, we pride ourselves in building and delivering a home that is as unique as the families we build them for.”
