First Florida Construction - Custom Home Builder Palm Beach Martin County

Martin County’s Trusted Luxury Home Builder

Martin County presents a distinct set of building conditions, from waterfront and riverfront properties to private communities with strict architectural requirements. Delivering projects here requires local knowledge, established relationships, and disciplined execution.

First Florida Construction has been building and renovating custom estates throughout Martin County for over 50 years. With our office in Stuart, we are embedded in the local building environment, working closely with architects, municipalities, and trade partners across every phase of construction.

Custom Luxury Homes in Stuart & Martin County

Stuart sits at the center of Martin County’s luxury residential market, with a mix of waterfront properties, barrier island homes, and gated communities. Each environment comes with different permitting requirements, elevation considerations, and construction constraints that must be accounted for early in the process.

We have built homes along the Loxahatchee River, on Hutchinson Island, and within communities such as Sailfish Point. These projects reflect our familiarity with local codes, site conditions, and the expectations of both homeowners and design teams in this market.

Why Martin County Architects & Homeowners Choose First Florida

We are trusted by architects and designers working in Martin County, both locally and internationally, to execute complex residential projects. Our team executes the plan while protecting the integrity of the design at every phase. When challenges arise, we provide solutions that support both the design intent and the build.

Our clients are often experienced homeowners who understand the difference between a well-managed project and one that is not. They choose First Florida for the structure, communication, and consistency we bring to each build.

When Sharon and I left California to build our dream home in Stuart, our biggest worry was finding a building contractor we could trust. With the help of our local real estate agent Mike Galleher, we were put in contact with Paul Kleinfeld and his team at First Florida. On all fronts, we would rate our experience with First Florida a ten out of ten. When our first and favorite house design priced out well above budget, Paul and his team led the way in value engineering the project back to budget while still realizing the core of our design vision. After breaking ground, First Florida staff was on-site every day working with all of the vital subcontractors and craftsmen. Most weekends saw work taking place at the job site. Even though the week of Hurricane Irma the project was only stopped for a few days before ramping back to full speed. The First Florida back office team is tops as well. Changes in orders were handled quickly and effectively. Project billing was clear, timely, and easy to understand. In the end, we got the house of our dreams, one we feel is truly a landmark home in Stuart, on budget and ahead of schedule! Even today, seven months after we got the keys, the First Florida team is always there promptly to address even the smallest of items that might crop up. We couldn't be more happy with the result, and we would recommend First Florida to anyone looking to build their own dream home!
