Marsh Harbor

There are only so many opportunities to build directly along the Intracoastal Waterway. Marsh Harbor is one of them. Located just south of the Palm Valley Bridge in St. Johns County, Marsh Harbor is a private gated community shaped by water, marsh and preserved natural landscapes. Its setting offers the kind of privacy, direct water access and connection to the outdoors that has become increasingly difficult to find along the Northeast Florida coast. Glenn Layton Homes is proud to offer our fully custom design-build experience in Marsh Harbor, creating waterfront new construction designed around the property, the surroundings and the way you want to live.

The Custom Experience

A property this distinctive calls for a home designed specifically for it. Glenn Layton Homes brings architecture, interior design and construction together through a fully custom design-build process. Rather than fitting a predetermined plan onto the property, we consider how the home should respond to its orientation, views, natural light, outdoor spaces, waterfront access and surrounding landscape. From the earliest design conversations through construction and final details, our team works alongside you to create a home that feels personal to both your lifestyle and the place where it is built.

Build Your Waterfront Home in Marsh Harbor

The remaining homesites at Marsh Harbor offer something increasingly difficult to find in Northeast Florida: the opportunity to pair fully custom new construction with approximately 100 feet of waterfront frontage, private dock potential and direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway. Contact Glenn Layton Homes to explore available homesites and begin designing a home shaped around life on the water.

For a custom waterfront home, that setting opens up possibilities. Outdoor living can flow toward the water and dock. Pools and terraces can become extensions of the home. Windows, gathering spaces and private rooms can be positioned around natural light and long views. The landscape and access to the water become part of how the home is designed and lived in every day.
