We are Minchew.

We are family. We are a third generation building and development company started in Marietta, Georgia in the 60’s. For more than 50 years, we have placed quality and personal relationships at the heart of our company. Now a third generation construction company, we are happy to call Santa Rosa Beach our home. In order to build special properties, we must live in a special place ourselves and living and working near the beautiful beaches of Walton County, Florida accomplishes that mission.
