๐ก Project Status
โข Oceanside Homes is actively building a Topsider elevated coastal home in New Smyrna Beach, designed specifically for the Florida coast โ built to last in hurricane-prone environments.
๐ What Makes a Topsider Home Special
โข Hurricane & storm resistance: Topsider homes are engineered on elevated pedestals, stilts, or pilings to withstand high winds, storm surge, and flooding โ ideal for beachfront and coastal regions like New Smyrna Beach. ๏ฟผ
โข Long track record: This design has been used for decades to survive major storms in Florida, the Bahamas, and other hurricane-vulnerable coasts, with many older Topsider homes still standing after direct hurricane hits. ๏ฟผ
โข Low-maintenance design: Modern builds use high-impact materials and finishes suited for salt-air climates, balancing structural strength with beachfront luxury. ๏ฟผ
๐ Lifestyle & Customization
โข These homes typically offer panoramic ocean views, open coastal layouts, and customizable design features โ blending durability with vacation-style living.
