Design Phase
Custom Home on Acreage in North Fort Myers, Florida
A custom home designed around acreage living, with gardening space, deep covered outdoor areas and room to spread out well beyond a standard subdivision lot.
Follow this build →Every Lauren Homes build starts as a conversation and ends with a set of keys. These project pages follow real custom homes we are building right now in Southwest Florida — from the first design meeting through floor plans, permitting, construction and move-in day. Each home keeps the same page for the life of the build, so you can come back any time and see how far it has come.

What the status labels mean
- Design Phase — the homeowners are under contract and we are shaping the concept, the site plan and the way the home will live.
- Pre-Construction — floor plans are finalized, selections are underway and the budget is locked.
- Permitting — plans are with Lee County or the local jurisdiction awaiting approval.
- Under Construction — the home is out of the ground and progressing through the build.
- Completed — the home is finished and the family has moved in.
Why We Publish Our Builds
Building a custom home on your own lot in Southwest Florida is a long process, and most people have never seen one from the inside. Showing real projects — the decisions, the timelines, the site work, the change orders — is the most honest way we know to explain what the experience is actually like before you commit to it.
