WORLD’S MOST NINE GORGEOUS BEACH HOUSES THAT INSPIRE YOU

By Unknown
For many people, a patch of Elysium means being able to live by the sea, with the sound of the surf lapping at the shore and the salty breeze greeting them through the windows. It’s truly something to live for – a seaside property, especially if it stands close to a world-famous beach like Bondi. Here are some properties around the world that get the beach lifestyle down pat.

Argentina

This wood-clad concrete beach house in Argentina made the most of its lot’s topography—with spectacular results. Housing a young couple with three children, the property sits on the dramatic sand dunes of Mar Azul in Buenos Aires province and boasts a prism-like floor plan. A terrace commands great views of the sea.

Australia

It’s hard to miss the iconic Pole House, a salient attraction of the Great Ocean Road in Australia. This beach house is named as it was perched some 130 feet above Fairhaven Beach in Victoria.

Brazil

Beaches are part and parcel of Brazil; it only makes perfect sense that the country has its share of comely seaside houses. Conceived by Brazilian architect Marcio Kogan, Paraty House, named after the town in which it is located, is a minimalist marvel, shaped like a gigantic, half-opened drawer. The property is accessible by boat.

Canada

Designed by Mackay-Lyons Sweetapple Architects, this unusual-looking house is situated on a gelid beach in Canada.  The main structure is cleaved into two pavilions, designed by the architects to jut out into the sea like a pair of binoculars or ships’ hulls. In fact, the property is nicknamed Two Hulls House.

Costa Rica

A brainchild of local firm Luz de Piedra Arquitectos, the Casa Atrevida is located along the treasured Preciosa Beach in Puerto Jimenez and  is a standout among South American beach houses. It is notable for making use of sustainable, earthquake-proof construction materials. You and your family can book it for a weekly price of up to $3,500.

Dominican Republic

If you are holidaying in the Dominican Republic with some serious moolah to burn, then check yourself into the stunning Casa Kimball. This private villa, designed by Rangr Studio. It can be rented for at least $3,000 a day, which is well worth it considering the expansive infinity pool and the comely vistas of the Cabrera waters. It is truly a playground for the rich and famous.

Lebanon

Fidar Beach House is a visually arresting rental property located in the city of Jbeil in Lebanon. Splayed on a rugged lot sandwiched between a sea cliff and a private road, the beach house offers terraces in rolling elevations, all with authoritative panoramas of Lebanon’s northern coast. The structure is built in a way that all the bedrooms and other private spaces are built low. The public spaces, such as the marvellous infinity pool, greet prospective occupants from above. Fidar House is ideal for families of five.

SPAIN

In the tourist hub of Cala d’Or in Mallorca, you would notice the ostentatious work of Flexo Arquitectura: an opulent beach property that not only commands great vistas of the Mediterranean but also has verdant patios. The house is basically divided into spaces and rooms for summer and winter. The basement boasts a state-of-the-art kitchen and roomy living spaces. The bayside portico is notably covered in bamboo.

USA

Residents of the Hamptons are known to one-up each other for building the most beautiful beach property in this side of the Atlantic. Stelle Lemont Rouhani architects have killed the competition with this structure, which evokes a three-storey hotel decked in polished wood. There’s an outdoor fireplace for guests to cosy up to if ever the spacious pool gets too cold.

Is any of these your dream beach house? Or do you have other ideas in mind? The important thing to remember, if you plan on staying in one for the long term, is that you should have a genuine love for the ocean. Otherwise, you might be better off inland, be it in the rustic idylls of the countryside or the frenetic jungle of the city.
