SEMI-CUSTOM HOME DESIGNS IN NAVARRE
Proudly Serving Navarre & Santa Rosa County
OUR PROCESS
We start by learning your must-haves, walking your lot, and reviewing site conditions — soil, setbacks, and any HOA or flood-zone requirements — so your semi-custom plan fits the site from day one.
Choose from our proven floor plans, then work with our team to adjust room layouts, exterior elevations, and finish selections to make it yours.
We handle permitting, finalize your selections, and schedule your build — keeping you informed at every step before the first shovel hits the ground.
Our crews build to the plan you approved, with scheduled check-ins along the way and a final walkthrough before we hand you the keys.
WHY CHOOSE US
At Aroha Builders, our values guide every relationship we build, every home we craft, and every decision we make. Rooted in the meaning of Aroha—love, connection, empathy, and generosity—these principles shape our approach from the foundation up.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What's the difference between a semi-custom and a fully custom home with Aroha Builders?
A semi-custom home starts from one of our proven, ready-to-build floor plans, which we then adjust to fit your lifestyle — layout tweaks, exterior elevation changes, and finish selections. A fully custom home is designed from a blank page. Semi-custom is typically faster to permit and build because the base plan is already engineered.
How much can I actually change on a semi-custom floor plan?
Most clients adjust room layouts, kitchen and bath configurations, exterior elevation style, and all interior finishes — flooring, cabinets, and fixtures. Structural changes beyond the plan's engineered footprint typically move a project into our custom home process.
How long does a semi-custom build take?
Timelines vary by lot, permitting jurisdiction, and selections, but starting from an existing floor plan generally shortens the design phase compared to a fully custom build. We'll give you a realistic schedule once your plan and site are confirmed.
Do I need to already own a lot to start a semi-custom home with Aroha Builders?
No — we work with clients who already own land and with clients still searching for the right lot across Okaloosa, Walton, and Santa Rosa counties. We can help evaluate a lot's fit for your chosen plan before you buy.
Does Holley by the Sea require design approval for a semi-custom home?
Yes — Holley by the Sea has its own Architectural Department that reviews new construction. We build your semi-custom plan's adjustments to meet the community's design standards before submitting for approval.
Can a semi-custom home be built on Navarre Beach?
Navarre Beach sits on Santa Rosa Island and falls under Florida's Coastal Construction Control Line, requiring elevated, pile-founded construction. We can adapt select semi-custom plans to meet these barrier-island requirements — ask us during your site consultation.
