We’ve all heard the phrase, “the devil is in the details.” And with luxury residential builds, this couldn’t be farther from the truth. After all, it’s the details that elevate an everyday custom home to the high-end luxury living you want.

Building Luxury Homes in South Florida

When building new, attention to detail starts right away with selecting the perfect lot. Where you build will impact how and what you build.

Here in Miami, special assessments may need to be completed in order to see how the lot may be affected. Things like being in a flood zone or close to water will impact the structure of the build, as can soil quality, zoning issues, neighborhood design restrictions, property sloping, and more.

Structural and aesthetic limitations due to the lot’s location and size are essential to know prior to moving ahead with the project. Knowing what can and can’t be built will inform the design phase of the property, and overlooking important details related to a home’s buildability can put the entire project in jeopardy.

An Eye for Quality Finishes in Luxury Residences

Once your general contractor has confirmed the lot is buildable per your goals and you’ve begun planning and designing the project, additional details begin to matter, such as the selection and quality of materials you choose for everything from the fixtures and finishes to any custom building that will be required for specialty items like cabinets or other unique features in your game room or wine cellar, for example.

Each of these choices and details will need to be factored into the planning phase so they can be budgeted for and, most importantly, scheduled. Some vendors book out months to years, and materials also must be ordered well in advance. If these details get overlooked, your timeline can be stretched well beyond what is acceptable.

Your custom home should be perfect, and the right design and build will reflect who you are and how you want to spend your time there. At Seacoast Construction, we know that perfection is in the details, and that is what we pride ourselves on with each build.
