Property Description
This extraordinary home was expertly designed and constructed to withstand hurricane-force winds while minimizing flood risk. Built with reinforced concrete, the structure is exceptionally resilient against high winds, significantly reducing the likelihood of damage during severe weather. Impact-resistant windows and doors, along with a slate roof securely anchored with hurricane clips and ties, enhance its stability.
Set back from the shoreline and perched on elevated ground, the house is strategically positioned to protect against storm surges and flooding. Its foundation is raised several feet above the known flood level, further diminishing the risk of water damage from heavy rains and high tides. This combination of thoughtful design and durable construction ensures that Maison de Joie is not only storm-resistant but also secure from potential floodwaters.
