How to Do Coastal Living with ICI Homes

Summer fun calls year round in Florida thanks to the Sunshine State’s temperate climate. And while the calendar may say June or January when you read this, living a coastal lifestyle is possible every day of the year when you build a new custom Florida home with ICI Homes.

Whether it’s waterfront, water-adjacent, or beaches or boating within easy reach, ICI Homes can help our customers achieve the coastal lifestyle they’re envisioning.

We’ve built new custom Florida homes all over the state for more than 45 years and we’re known as Florida’s Custom Builder. We’re developing our own master-planned communities and serving as preferred builders in others on both coasts — and near central Florida’s sparkling lakes and freshwater springs.

Build it

For most people, coastal living means saltwater and sandy beaches. We’re busy in master-planned communities in Jacksonville, Fernandina Beach, Ormond Beach, Daytona Beach, Tampa and Sarasota — many of which are only a few minutes and miles from Atlantic or Gulf beaches.

Our premier golfing communities — Amelia National Golf & Country Club in Fernandina Beach and Plantation Bay Golf & Country Club in Ormond Beach — each are less than 15 minutes from Atlantic beaches.

A bit further south, ICI Homes is a preferred builder at the Oasis at Hammock Dunes golf community in Palm Coast, which is sited between the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway and beaches, and where residents can purchase a membership at the nearby oceanfront Hammock Dunes Club.

Headed to central Florida? One of our newest projects is the Weslyn Park neighborhood at Sunbridge, a newly opened master-planned community a half-hour southeast of Orlando that borders a chain of lakes.

Across the state, ICI Homes is a preferred builder in the Palmera and Oakbend neighborhoods of Wellen Park in Venice, just minutes from Manasota Key’s Gulf beaches.

Design it

No matter where you locate your new custom Florida home, achieve coastal vibes inside and out with interior design, decorative flourishes and breezy outdoor living spaces.

Work with your designer at the ICI Homes Design Center to choose coastal-friendly materials, finishes and color schemes for a custom build. Prefer one of ICI Homes’ inventory homes for a quick move? Furnish it with sand, sea and sky colors and comfy furniture that evokes a stay-a-while lounge like a beach chair.

A swimming pool, spa or burbling fountain provides the water element, and since every ICI Homes floor plan comes with a covered lanai, imagine it as your own resort-style amenity center.

Customize it

Searching for oceanfront, boating access or a deep-water dock in your future back yard? Work with ICI Homes’ On Your Land or Ours custom division to find the ideal piece of land for it.

Our pros will help you track down the acreage, collaborate with you on designing your dream home, plus brainstorm its dockage, beachfront access or outdoor living oasis.
