Meet Bill Ennen, President and Founder

Bill’s fascination with construction began when he was just a child growing up in rural Minnesota. Neighbors, friends, and family appreciated his love of working with his hands and afforded Bill multiple opportunities to perfect his practice. Over the years, Bill’s knowledge and skills advanced while his fascination transformed into a passion.

After graduating from Augsburg College, where he majored in Business Management and Economics, Bill combined his education with his passion for construction and focused on home building as his profession. During this time, Bill developed a desire to find a way to serve his community by providing a stress-free home building process for those looking to have their dream homes built while never sacrificing quality for quantity.

In 1993, Bill founded Florida Lifestyle Homes, inc. a company that creates luxurious custom homes in Southwest Florida. A self-described “muddy shoe” builder, Bill’s fierce commitment to quality is reflected in every home he builds: “Everything we do, we do with the best quality materials and craftsmanship. Every home we build, all the details have to be perfect.” At the core of Florida Lifestyle Homes are Bill’s strong values including efficiency, teamwork, timeliness and quality. These guiding values are at the forefront of Florida Lifestyle Homes mission to create luxurious residences customized with meticulous detail.

Today, Bill is just as passionate about building as he was when he was a child, and his passion is shared by everyone at Florida Lifestyle Homes. Guided by his extensive knowledge and expertise, Bill’s talented team of designers and project managers are dedicated to going beyond simply meeting client expectations but exceeding them. Imbued with his standards of true craftmanship, exquisite architecture and attention to detail, Bill has developed Florida Lifestyle Homes into one of Southwest Florida’s premiere custom home builders.

Testimonials

It is my genuine pleasure to write to you regarding our complete pleasure with out Florida Lifestyle Home. We purchased our home early in 2013 and wrote a glowing recommendation months later. I had occasion to speak with you now (over 6 yrs later) regarding getting a paperwork item that you easily sent to us. Of note, I was also pleased to report our continued pleasure with our Florida Lifestyle Home. Even 6 yrs later, we are amazed with the quality of materials and workmanship demonstrated in this house. In over 6 yrs, we have had ZERO issues. You might expect a minor issue here or there, perhaps some minor settling with a cracked grout line, maybe a popped nail head on a sheetrock wall? But absolutely nothing!!! Our home has remained as impeccable as the day we moved in. This is an honest testimony to Bill and the quality folks he employs. Please say hi to LeeAnn and John Blackman, they were so helpful throughout our building process. Our superintendent Mike has retired I guess, but he too was simply superb. We are thankful we chose FLH to construct our house, kudos to you all. Stay well and God bless.

Roger and Debbie

After building six homes across the country, we can honestly say Florida Lifestyle Homes is the best builder that we've ever worked with on a new house.
Bill Ennen and his team are very professional, design and create beautiful homes, and make the process very easy. We built our home while being more than 1,000 miles away and felt like we were involved in every step of the process.
We'd highly recommend Florida Lifestyle Homes to build your next home.

While most builders will try to cut corners to save time and money, you can rest assured that Florida Lifestyle Homes will build you a finely customized home providing full attention to superior quality construction and the finest finishing details available; they just do things the RIGHT way. The level of attention and service provided goes way beyond the typical as the team understands that communication is a key ingredient in customer satisfaction.

Charles and Angela

Very good builder. Florida Lifestyle Homes of Fort Myers, Inc. defines perfection and builds to exceed the customer's expectations. Our home is a quality home. We describe Bill Ennen as the "superlative" builder.

Mardi and John

Good reputation. We really like one of the builder's floor plans and Bill Ennen personally worked with us to customize the plan to meet our requirements and desires. Bill has a professional demeanor and has a way about him that makes everyone happy. He stay involved and helps during the building process as well as after the job is done.

Biagio and Ophelia

Bill Ennen epitomizes professionalism, attention to detail, on-site supervision and personal service. We have built an office building and home with Florida Lifestyle Homes of Fort Myers, Inc, and both have resulted in products that exceeded our expectations.

Fred and Melissa

I really appreciate the amount of through and effort that went into creating my custom home plans. The speed of approval is a testament to how careful and detailed the folks are at Florida Lifestyle Homes. Great Work!

Lawrence

We are both amazed at how fast everything is moving! That is a tribute to your great work. Timing is everything! There is no doubt, YOU are the BEST.

Roger and Kristy

From the very first day we net with Florida Lifestyle Homes we felt we were part of the team building our dream home. We were not owner and builder - we worked together - on all aspects of the build. We enjoyed working with Carlos on the design and then John took over to secure all the materials we needed. John is amazing as he always had our best interests at heart. At this point we were thrilled with how everything was going. We could not be more grateful for the dedication and commitment of the Florida Lifestyle team. When we tell people we finished out home and still liked our builder we are met with puzzled faces. Apparently they did not build with Florida Lifestyle Homes! We recommend, without any reservations, that if you want a beautifully designed and built home by a team that is a pleasure to work with then you need to build with Florida Lifestyle Homes.

Marie

Well, here we are, approaching the 1-year anniversary of moving into our new Florida Lifestyle Home. All I can say, to anyone considering building with these folks, is this... GO FOR IT! Our experience was absolutely wonderful. Not only was the final home a thing of beauty and joy, but the entire process was truly enjoyable, and NOT nearly as stressful as we thought it might be (especially considering the process was done long distance). Starting with their sales department, then through the design phase, continuing with the various selection decisions, our site superintendent, and then the financial tracking... all we can say is Kudos for the "job well done." In summary, Bill has assembled a team of true professionals, and we give this company our highest, unqualified recommendation. You may feel free to contact us at any time for references, as we have nothing but praise for this builder... they are the BEST around! God Bless you all and thanks for everything.

Roger and Debbie

I had tremendous concerns about building a home in Florida while working and living in Chicago. All of my concerns were for naught. We just came back form Florida and in just 14 hours with Luanza (2 days), we successfully picked out all of our appliances, cabinets, flooring, countertops, shower tiles, roof tiles, driveway pavers, plumbing fixtures, door knobs and even some furniture too! Our time with Luanza was not only productive, but also fun, enjoyable and completely stress-free! We couldn't be any happier with our decision to build a Florida Lifestyle Home.

Denyse

Just a note to say how much we appreciate he fine work that Jimmy did at the Lee County Sheriff Health and Wellness Center (StarCare). Jimmy has been an excellent resource for ideas. He has been there when we needed him and has done fantastic work too!

Going through the build process with FLS was a very easy experience from beginning to end. The FLS team was easy to work with, honest and the end result was nothing less than stunning. They are a stand up company.

Brad & Andrea

Our home is absolutely beautiful. And I want to thank you for all the great workmanship in this home. I cannot tell you how happy Mary and I are with the new home. Hopefully someday I will get to meet you and thank you personally. I am a Dentist and I understand quality very well, after owning a business for 41 years. I recognize fantastic workmanship, this is an extremely well builT home. The workmanship is beautiful. Thanks so much for making it all happen.

Stephen & Mary

Our experience was wonderful, from the beginning to end. Everyone we were connected with at Florida Lifestyle Homes were courteous, respectful and truthful every step of the way. We had an excellent Sales Rep and Construction Manager who were always available to answer any questions and guide us along the way. Florida Lifestyle Homes was the right choice for us.

Wayne

We have known and trusted Bill and his company with our homes for over 20 years. He is a man of his word and goes above and beyond to deliver the best product and value available. We also have high regard for his staff-particularly Andrew, who is always there to see that things are running smoothly in the field during construction. Unfortunately, in today's building environment, that is more difficult than ever. With constantly increasing labor and supply shortages and escalating costs, it is almost impossible to keep to a schedule or cost estimate. I see this every time I go to the food store or fill up with gas. If and when we choose to build another home, there is NO DOUBT that it will be with Florida Lifestyle Homes!

Eva

Florida Lifestyle built our home in Quail West and the process went amazing. We also had THE best Superintendent, Andrew. Him and Rhonda are the dream team, and now we have our dream home. Thank you for everything.

Joe

Great company and great staff. Willing to do the extra things to make customer happy. They use professional subs as well. Very pleased with the company.

Brian

It's been my pleasure to have worked with Bill Ennen and Florida Lifestyle Homes since 1997. They continually impress me with their professionalism in the face of adversity, and the group as a whole's ability to meet the client needs. Always communicative, always positive, always organized, ...working on their sites is easy because the project managers run a tight ship. And if there is a problem, they solve it. The home designs are beautiful, the locations, grand. Their clients continue to be some of the nicest people we worked for and that says a lot about whom they choose to build their new home.

Patrick

Jim and I would like to express our sincere pleasure on the completion of our beautiful home. This whole experience has really been wonderful from start to finish. Our first memory was walking into the “Summerland Model” and falling in love. It is at this point we met Kelley Reischl, Salesperson, and our adventure began. We remember signing the contract and knowing that Kelley was as happy for us as we were. We were then introduced to Sydney Warren, Interior Decorator, Norris Furniture. She understood my vision for this home and helped us achieve that. Our home turned out beautiful. The next VIP was meeting “Johnny” Lanni, Project Manager. We immediately fell in love again, and pretty much from that day forward we would see Johnny every day. He was always honest, and straightforward (for these tough times) and of course patient. Its not always easy seeing homeowners everyday. We sought his advice at times and it turned out to be the right decision. He is still to this day making sure that everything is complete. Bill Ennen, Owner, Florida Lifestyle Homes, and all his staff are all professional and competent. Our experience with Bill is that he is a ethical builder. The ending to this story is that my husband and I go forward in our beautiful, wonderful and gorgeous home and live “happily ever after”! My home, our home.

Jim and Marjorie

We are so happy with our new Florida Lifestyle Home - Kelley was amazing !! From our first drive into Naples Reserve until our closing on August 5th we could not have asked for anything more. At all times, her level of professionalism and pride in the FLH product came through in every conversation. We are so proud to call her our friend. The entire team, from Rhonda, Connie, Leeanne to Johnny were always there to take our calls and answer any questions that would arise. Again - Thank you all for our beautiful home! Bill, you have built an amazing team!

Jeffrey & Michele

Florida Lifestyle Homes built us an exceptional home as we navigated through supply chain and pricing crisis. The end product quality did offset the construction process issues and the punch list follow up has been exceptional to date. The company personnel were pleasant to work with, timely and honored our requests.
