If you’ve spent any time house-hunting around the Emerald Coast, you’ve probably come across the name Randy Wise Homes. They’ve been building here since the late 1970s, and there’s a reason their homes hold their value so well. It comes down to quality, relationships, and attention to detail you can actually feel when you walk through the door.
During our visit to Addie’s Place in Bluewater Bay, we toured one of their beautiful model homes and immediately noticed what makes these homes different. The craftsmanship is unreal, from the smooth, seamless floors to the oversized kitchen island that doesn’t have a single center seam. It’s those subtle details that most people don’t think about until they live in a home built with that kind of care.
Every home includes touches that make it both beautiful and practical. Real brick accents, Wood Harbor cabinetry, and hand-picked appliances chosen by the homeowner give each property its own unique personality. Even the elevation of the homes is thoughtfully planned so they sit slightly higher, giving them a balanced look and better protection during Florida’s rainy months.
What really sets Randy Wise apart is the experience. Mandy, their operations manager, said something that stuck with me. Many homeowners tell her they don’t want the process to end because it’s been so enjoyable. That’s not something you hear often when it comes to new construction. The company focuses on relationships, not just builds, and it shows in how involved and cared for their clients feel from start to finish.
Addie’s Place itself is one of those tucked-away gated communities that feels peaceful the moment you drive in. It’s located in Bluewater Bay, just minutes from the water, golf courses, and local spots where you can grab a bite and watch the sunset over the bay. There are only a handful of homes left here, which makes each one feel even more special.
And just when you think they couldn’t top it, Randy Wise Homes is already expanding nearby with a brand new development called The Meadows at Magnolia. It’s another gated community right down the road, featuring 15 oversized lots with all new floor plans, optional pools, cabanas, and coastal elevations designed specifically for this project. They’ve already started a waitlist, so it’s safe to say these homes won’t last long.
For anyone considering new construction around Niceville or Bluewater Bay, a Randy Wise home is worth a serious look. Between the craftsmanship, the thoughtful design, and the personal touch you get along the way, it’s clear why so many families choose to build and stay with them.
