Northwest Florida's Fastest-Growing Community
Navarre has exploded from a quiet bedroom community into one of the most desirable places to live in Northwest Florida. Located on the Santa Rosa County side of the bay between Pensacola and Fort Walton Beach, Navarre offers families something the tourist-heavy beach towns cannot: a genuine neighborhood feel with top-rated schools, safe streets, and a growing commercial base — all within 15 minutes of pristine Gulf beaches.
The population growth has driven a construction boom that shows no signs of slowing. New subdivisions extend north from Highway 98 along Hwy 87, and each new home needs a landscape that transforms bare dirt and builder-grade sod into a functional, attractive outdoor space. Many Navarre homeowners are first-time Florida buyers who relocated from states with completely different climates and have no idea what plants, turf, or irrigation systems work here. That is where our local expertise becomes invaluable.
We serve the entire Navarre area, from Navarre Beach on Santa Rosa Island to the Holley by the Sea community and the East Bay neighborhoods. Our familiarity with local HOA requirements, Santa Rosa County permit processes, and the specific soil and drainage conditions in each Navarre subdivision means fewer surprises and faster project completion.
From Builder-Grade to Family-Ready
New construction homes in Navarre typically come with 3-4 inches of sod over compacted fill dirt, a few shrubs jammed against the foundation, and no irrigation. Within six months, the sod starts thinning where the fill dirt lacks nutrients, the shrubs outgrow their locations, and homeowners wonder why their lawn looks worse than the day they moved in.
Our Navarre new-build landscape package addresses every one of these problems. We start with a soil test to determine what amendments the fill dirt needs (usually organic matter and controlled-release fertilizer). We design a planting plan that accounts for the home's orientation, sun exposure patterns throughout the day, and the mature size of every plant — no more boxwoods planted 18 inches from the house that will engulf the windows in three years.
The irrigation system is the single most important investment for a new Navarre home. We install multi-zone smart irrigation with separate schedules for turf, beds, and any established trees. Rain sensors prevent waste during Florida's afternoon thunderstorm season. Drip zones in plant beds deliver water to root zones without wetting foliage, which reduces disease pressure in our humid climate.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Navarre
Holley by the Sea
One of the original planned communities in Navarre, Holley by the Sea features mature landscaping, established oaks, and a community pool area. Many homeowners here are upgrading aging landscapes with new hardscape, updated irrigation, and fresh plantings. The community's internal roads and lot layout create specific wind patterns and shade conditions that affect plant selection — we account for these micro-conditions in every design.
Navarre Beach
Properties on the Navarre Beach section of Santa Rosa Island face the most aggressive coastal conditions in the area. High winds, direct salt spray, and shifting sand require specialized plant selections and anchored hardscape installations. Landscape lighting near the beach must comply with sea turtle ordinances during nesting season. We design beach-side landscapes that are both beautiful and compliant.
East Bay & Sound-Side Neighborhoods
The neighborhoods along Santa Rosa Sound and East Bay offer waterfront living with less salt exposure than the Gulf-side beach. Properties here range from modest homes to custom waterfront estates. Common projects include seawall-adjacent landscaping, dock lighting, and outdoor entertainment areas designed for families who spend weekends fishing, kayaking, and grilling with neighbors.
Highway 87 Corridor & New Subdivisions
The growth axis north along Highway 87 is where most of Navarre's new subdivisions are concentrated. Communities like Holley Terrace and surrounding developments feature homes from $300,000 to $600,000 with typical quarter-acre lots. These neighborhoods have the youngest landscapes in Navarre, and families here represent our highest-volume market for new irrigation systems, paver patios, and complete landscape installations.
