Hailed as the original model for the ensuing New Urbanist development along 30A, Seaside has retained its character as a friendly beachside town with cobblestone streets, beach pavilions, and an enviable array of services and amenities including the Seaside Neighborhood Charter School. With its motto of “A simple, beautiful life”, it comes as no surprise that this idyllic Florida Seaside community was used as the movie set for The Truman Show starring Jim Carrey, in 1998.

Seaside, Florida Architecture

 
Robert and Daryl Davis were the pioneering founders of Seaside Florida, which has since become the blueprint for other master-planned pedestrianized communities nearby. Architects Andrés Duany and Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk worked on the innovative town planning to create desirable homes in a pedestrian-friendly community. Sandy trails and winding brick-laid streets were designed to be explored at a leisurely pace on foot or by bicycle.
 
 
The iconic homes and condos in Seaside display Southern influences in the architectural style. Friendly neighborhoods consist of pastel-colored cottages with clapboard siding and elevated front porches standing behind neat white picket fences. Tower rooms peek above the roofline to capture a glimpse of the glittering Gulf waters. Closer to the beach, Gulf-front mansions in Seaside enjoy grand Greco-Roman elements.
 
Five condo developments overlook Central Square and the amphitheater, including the 25 Central Square Condo at Seaside, Lyceum Gateway Condo, 55 Central Square Villas, Opus in Seaside, and Dreamland Heights Condo at Seaside. Each building houses retail space on the lower levels with only a handful of units located on the higher floors, making available condos a rare find in Seaside.
