About The Strand
Indian River Shores · Indian River County, Florida
The Strand by GHO Homes represents the pinnacle of new construction luxury in Indian River County — an ultra-luxury gated enclave in Indian River Shores, one of Florida's most exclusive incorporated municipalities. Situated along the Indian River Lagoon, The Strand offers estate-size homesites with Intracoastal water views in a setting of manicured natural beauty.
GHO Homes' flagship luxury product delivers a level of craftsmanship that distinguishes it from production builders — custom-quality finishes, architectural details, and attention to the intersection of indoor and outdoor living that Florida's climate demands. Each home includes private outdoor living spaces designed for year-round use, with summer kitchen options, pool configurations, and covered lanai areas of substantial scale.
Indian River Shores is a separately incorporated municipality within Indian River County with its own police department and strict architectural and environmental standards that maintain the character of this exceptional community. Proximity to the Indian River Lagoon, barrier island beaches, and Vero Beach's cultural institutions makes this location one of the most coveted in all of coastal Florida.
Impact glass, natural gas, and premium mechanical systems are standard throughout. GHO's Tailor-Made Program allows buyers to customize finishes, elevations, and select structural options before construction begins.
Private Consultation Recommended
The Strand warrants a dedicated consultation before any sales office visit. Paradise Realty FLA will walk you through current homesite availability, pricing, and the GHO purchase process in detail before you meet with the builder.
Important: At this price point, proper buyer representation from contract through closing is essential — contact us first.
