Walk through a completed Marlin Point home room by room. Finishes and furnishings shown are from one home and vary by build.
The Marlin Point is a 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath coastal home plan with 2,112 square feet of living space on two living levels, and covered porches on the front and rear of both levels. Its layout is intended for coastal and waterfront parcels, subject to lot review of setbacks, flood elevation, access and site conditions.
Coastal and waterfront lots bring flood elevation, setback and wind requirements that shape every home. Foundation systems must respond to the site, and local codes still require full flood elevation and wind resistance.
The Marlin Point is designed with these conditions in mind. The home is designed to meet applicable FEMA flood requirements and local flood codes, and foundations are engineered from a site-specific geotechnical study.
The ground level beneath the living levels can be configured to suit the homeowner, for example more parking or open covered outdoor space, subject to flood zone and local flood codes.
Seasafe Homes received the 2025 Mark Samuelian Award in Residential Resilience (Resilience Action Fund) for a Seasafe-built coastal home.
Foundations are engineered from a site-specific geotechnical study and designed to applicable FEMA flood requirements and local flood codes.
Seasafe living space sections are engineered to a 180 MPH wind rating.
Floors are framed with a 2×12 floor system, and exterior walls are framed with 2×6 lumber.

Coastal homes built traditionally still face construction delays. Weather stops framing. Trades wait on inspections. Permits take time regardless of home size.
The Two-Site Construction Model is designed to reduce them. Living spaces build in a controlled environment while foundation work progresses onsite. Both phases run simultaneously. When ready, the living space sections are transported to your lot and set on the prepared foundation. Seasafe’s Two-Site Construction process allows the living space sections and onsite foundation work to progress simultaneously, helping reduce weather exposure and shorten the overall construction schedule.
Typically 6 to 8 months, permit issuance to certificate of occupancy. Every jurisdiction varies, and no completion date is guaranteed. A shorter build can mean less time carrying a construction loan and sooner occupancy, whether you are living in the home or renting it. Loan and insurance terms depend on your lender, carrier and project.
Seasafe Homes offers curated finish collections for the Marlin Point. Select from professionally designed interior and exterior packages, then personalize cabinetry, countertops, flooring, paint, appliances, fixtures, siding, roofing, and architectural details.
This streamlined process narrows the decisions to a focused set of curated selections, helping keep the project on schedule while reflecting your coastal style.

Seasafe Homes prepares permit submissions for Florida coastal municipalities. The Marlin Point is designed to meet applicable FEMA flood requirements and local flood codes, with lot-specific details confirmed through permitting.
Foundation design accounts for site-specific conditions determined through geotechnical soil testing and topographic surveys. Elevation and structural plans are designed to applicable flood and wind requirements, subject to local plan review and inspection.
Elevated foundations and engineered structural connections are the kinds of details insurance carriers review. Whether they affect eligibility for credits or discounts depends on the carrier, property and policy, so confirm with your insurance professional.
Build and engineering documentation is available from the build to support that review. Insurance, resale, rental income and appraisal outcomes vary by property, policy, carrier and market, and are questions for your insurance professional, a real estate professional and an appraiser. Cost depends on the lot, the selections and site conditions, so the best next step is a conversation about your project.
