Ocean Ridge keeps its skyline low on purpose: town code caps buildings at three stories and prohibits commercial and industrial use altogether, which has preserved a barrier-island community of historic cottages, mid-century homes, and newer construction sitting quietly between the Atlantic and the Intracoastal. Ocean-side properties often come with deeded beach access and private walkovers, while homes on the Intracoastal side tend toward deepwater lots with docks built for real boats.

Elbaz Construction has experience navigating the strict building codes that keep a town like Ocean Ridge the way its residents want it to stay, from height and setback limits to the hurricane and flood-elevation standards that apply to any barrier-island project. Whether you’re updating an older cottage or building new on a waterfront lot, our job is to keep the project moving smoothly through that process instead of letting code requirements become obstacles.
