We love it here and truly can’t imagine living anywhere else in Florida. It’s where rural charm meets modern convenience.

Pasco is one of Florida’s fastest-growing areas, offering the perfect balance of peaceful rural living and convenient access to Tampa’s urban amenities. With new hospitals, schools, and retail centers rising alongside scenic farmland and lakes, Pasco is attracting professionals and families seeking more privacy, lower taxes and a quieter lifestyle.

While many areas have grown increasingly dense and crowded, much of Pasco still retains its open space, rural charm, and peaceful character. With fewer restrictions and more available space, it offers the ideal canvas to build a large estate home and the freedom to create something truly one-of-a-kind. Whether you’re dreaming of space for horses and a vegetable garden, or you have the need for multi-generational living, building a home here provides the flexibility to design the lifestyle you want.

Pasco County truly offers the best of both worlds—a calm and private setting to call home, with the city, beaches, and airport still within easy reach.

Frequently Asked Questions

Smart decisions start with good information

Most of our custom homes take between 18 to 24 months from initial planning to completion, depending on the size, complexity, and Pasco County’s permitting requirements for your particular location.

As a licensed Florida real estate broker and custom home builder with over 20 years of experience building in Pasco County, we can help you find, evaluate, and purchase the right property for your custom home, including exploring potential tear-down opportunities. We have also lived in Pasco county for more than two decades, so we have valuable insight into the most desirable neighborhoods, as well as the unique challenges that can come with building in this area.

We’re often asked this question, and the honest answer is—it depends. With true a custom home, there are countless variables that affect the cost to build, including the location and site conditions, the complexity of the design, architectural features, the level of finishes, and even outdoor living elements like pools or detached structures.

Until we know more about where you’re building, what you want to build, and how you want to live in the home, it would be misleading to throw out a generic price per square foot. We strongly believe that if anyone gives you a number without first understanding those details is either guessing or trying to win your business with an unrealistic promise. That’s not how we operate. We believe in honesty from day one. If we’re not transparent at the beginning, how can you trust us throughout the entire build?

Once we fully understand your vision, we’ll walk you through a detailed, thoughtful budgeting process to arrive at an accurate and realistic estimate—no surprises, no games.

Our process starts with getting to know you and your lifestyle, your priorities, and your vision of how you want to live in your home. From there, we either help you design your home from the ground up or collaborate with your architect to fine-tune the plan. Eric personally guides you through everything—from choosing finishes and fixtures to walking the job site with trades. We believe the process of building your home should feel as custom as the home itself.

Unlike larger builders with multiples layers of staff and limited accountability, our boutique approach gives you a direct line to the person who has as much at stake as you do in getting every detail right.

With over 20 years of experience building high-end, luxury homes throughout the area, we combine local market knowledge, long-standing trade relationships, and a hands-on, design-build approach to deliver both high-end craftsmanship and personalized service.

Absolutely. Many of our past clients are happy to share their experience with Charter Bay and have generously allowed private tours of their completed homes upon request. We also welcome you to visit one of our current job sites to see our process and craftsmanship firsthand. Just contact us to schedule a time—we’d be glad to show you what sets us apart.
