Navigating Gulf Stream's Design Review for Waterfront Home Projects
Gulf Stream's Architectural Review and Planning Board reviews every project that alters the exterior of a home, and waterfront properties receive the same scrutiny as any other site in the town. The Design Manual's standards for massing, roof form, materials, and exterior color apply regardless of whether the home fronts the ocean, the Intracoastal, or an interior lot. ARB approval must be obtained before building permits are issued, which means the design review and the coastal permitting processes run in sequence.
Cannatelli Builders prepares ARB submittals for waterfront home builder projects in Gulf Stream with the Design Manual's standards addressed from the start. That preparation keeps the dual-track approval process on schedule and prevents the revision cycles that add months to the pre-construction timeline when submittals arrive without adequate familiarity with the town's expectations.
