The decision to buy a beach house is a significant one, marked by dreams of sun, surf, and coastal living. But before you dive into the world of beachfront properties, there’s one crucial question to answer: What do you truly want from your beach house?
The very first question to ask yourself when considering the purchase of a beach house is how you envision spending your precious time there. Are you looking for a project home where weekends are dedicated to tackling tasks like replacing rotted wood, upgrading windows for energy efficiency, or repainting walls? Or, is your dream to escape the “honey-do list” and fully immerse yourself in the blissful beach life?
If the former sounds appealing, where the journey itself is as rewarding as the destination, we respect your ambition, but Seahorse Estates may not be your perfect fit. Our community is tailor-made for those who yearn to maximize their beach and bay experiences, indulge in fantastic fishing opportunities, and relish a life enriched by beach and bay community amenities for every age group. We’ve designed our homes to stand resilient against the elements, so you can spend less time on home maintenance and more quality time with your loved ones.
It’s crucial to note that our homes at Seahorse Estates shouldn’t be directly compared to older beach houses for numerous reasons. The landscape of new home construction evolved significantly in 2010 following Hurricane Ike and again in 2018 post-Hurricane Harvey. These changes were rooted in the quest to build safer, more resilient homes capable of withstanding the unpredictable coastal elements.
Homes constructed before 2018 possess different building code requirements than those built afterward. Homes elevated on 12″x12″ pilings differ from those on 10″x10″ pilings. Meanwhile, homes built to match or exceed FEMA’s elevation standards for today’s requirements face a different set of challenges than those that don’t. With these considerations in mind, your search parameters may naturally gravitate towards newer homes that meet today’s elevated standards.
If you’re seeking a seamless, turnkey beach house experience, you’re in for a treat at Seahorse Estates.
