  • Strong design standards requiring continuity while allowing room for creativity are the foundation of Beachside Village – metal roofs, large decks, fencing, landscaping and attractive colors create an appealing visual within the neighborhood.
  • Architecture and design standards are stated in the Beachside Village Pattern Book. Every home design must be submitted to the Town Architect for review at two separate stages. Once approved, the owner shall choose a builder from the List of Approved Builders. The HOA maintains this list to the benefit of the property owners to ensure that the strict construction standards are adhered to within the community. The Town Architect follows each project through all phases of construction to make sure that the builders are building what has been approved. The Town Architect also performs periodic audits on the homes in the neighborhood to establish that the homes are being adequately maintained.
