Trends in eco-friendly architecture and green living have made their way to our outdoor living spaces, bringing drama, interest and excitement to the backyard of many Ponte Vedra beach homes.

Ponte Vedra builders are responding to their homeowners’ desires for outstanding outdoor spaces by incorporating them into their overall home design. And the result is nothing short of spectacular.

Say Good-Bye to Commonplace

Small, cramped backyards with concrete patios and a few plastic lawn chairs are certainly a thing of the past. Instead, imagine a backyard oasis designed with entertaining in mind. A stainless steel, commercial grill sits in the corner, alongside a fire pit, an infinity-edge lap pool and tropical plants at every corner.

Outdoor rooms created with stunning, natural materials, lush surroundings and high-end details such as fully equipped kitchens and entertaining spaces have made their way into many, new Ponte Vedra beach homes.

Keeping it Real

Natural materials, such as wood, marble, slate and stone surround are commonplace, as are non-toxic, biodegradable paints and varnishes. Preserving the surroundings and using natural sunlight and solar-powered lighting to enhance outdoor spaces further reflects the shift toward eco-friendly building and living.

This means that your Ponte Vedra beach house no longer has to sacrifice beauty and luxury for the sake of being kind of the environment.

High-End Meets Eco-Friendly

High-end living has met green living and both have gotten along famously. Manufacturers and builders no longer see earth-friendly materials and building practices as competing with luxury living. Homeowners can - and do - have the best of both worlds. Recycled products, water-saving landscapes and irrigation systems and earth-friendly building products have intermingled beautifully with luxury living to provide homeowners with fantastic, outdoor living spaces which remain sensitive to our environment.

Outdoor living spaces allow you to relax, unwind and share the company of good friends, all the while admiring the beauty that surrounds you. Cheers to the outdoors!
