Seaside FL Real Estate

Seaside, Florida has the distinction of achieving fame through both architectural circles and popular culture. TIME magazine described it as 'the most astounding design acheivement of its era and, one might hope, the most influential'. There are many communities in the U.S. that are copying the New Urbanist principles of Seaside, so this hope may not be a faint one.

However, Seaside real estate rose to prominence in the public eye through another medium - film. The Truman Show exhibited the unique layout of the streets and homes in Seaside. Seaside was chosen for the film's setting because of its image of the ideal beach town. The home of Florida State Senator Don Gaetz was used as the home of The Truman Show's main character, allowing people from all over the country to experience Seaside from the inside out.

Seaside homes come in a variety of pre-designed styles that are meant to evoke the welcoming nature of homes in such places as Savannah and Charleston. Seaside real estate design is strictly enforced so that homes meld perfectly with the neighborhood. Seaside condos are also designed so that they meld into the overall community layout rather than standing out as a collection of mis-matching multifamily homes.
