Pace Island Pavilion Ideas

  • Lounge with a TV. A covered living room in the yard.

  • Fireplace. A focal point for cooler nights.

  • Matching roofline. Roof and columns finished to suit the house.

  • Freestanding gathering space. Set out in the yard or at the end of a walkway, sized for how many people you host.

The EPA's UV Index guidance recommends seeking shade during late morning through mid-afternoon whenever the UV Index is moderate or higher.

Pace Island Planning Notes for Your Pavilion

Pace Island is separate from the Eagle Harbor and Fleming Island Plantation associations, so their guidelines don't apply here. Freestanding cedar gazebos with outdoor kitchens suit the lots in Pace Island. On a lot facing water, a roof is shaped and placed so the view from the family room stays open.

We place pavilions to frame a view or anchor the end of the yard. Before we draw a pavilion in Pace Island, we check how the roofline matches the home, setbacks on your survey and where power has to run.

DarkSky International recommends aiming outdoor lights downward with shielding, using timers or motion sensors, and choosing warmer colors where possible.

Approvals and Permits in Pace Island

In Pace Island, the association has its own review, separate from Eagle Harbor and Fleming Island Plantation. For a pavilion, boards typically look at its footprint on the lot, its height and its distance from the property lines. Confirm current guidelines with your association.

Clay County permits Pace Island homes. Accessory structures and additions get a Planning and Zoning site review before the building permit, and a certified Notice of Commencement is required for most permitted projects. Every permitted structure gets its necessary engineered documents.

Our Design-Build Process

  1. Design session with Amany. Your project starts at our Jacksonville design studio, where you sit down with founder Amany Youssef and watch your pavilion take shape live on screen in AutoCAD.

  2. Free AutoCAD design and a custom quote. You get to-scale 3D renderings and a fully itemized custom quote within 24 hours of your consultation, so you know exactly what you're getting.

  3. In-home design visit. Amany comes to your home for an in-person walkthrough, so we look at the project together where you're most comfortable, finalize the details and choose your colors and finishes.

  4. Engineering, HOA and permits handled. We get the necessary engineered documents for every permitted structure, prepare your HOA/ARB package and pull the Clay County permits.

  5. Build. We can start most projects within two to four weeks. Our crews follow a build process we've refined over many projects, and you get daily updates.

  6. The AY Advantage. You hold back the final 5% for seven days after completion, so we can take care of any touch-ups before you sign off.

Financing is available through Synchrony Bank, including 18 months of no-interest financing, and we have other financing options as well.
