For those of us who will be sweltering in our studio apartments during the long summer months fantasizing about a breezy ocean getaway, owning a beach house feels like an impossible dream. It might be, but we’re here to appeal to your inner daydreamer with a gallery of incredibly designed beach house retreats that impress with their unique architecture and intuitive connection to the sandy oceanscape. We were inspired to hit the shore after spotting an amazing house on Design You Trust. Visit it, and many other luxurious seaside villas, past the break.
Australian Beach House
Located in a suburb of Queensland, the Currimundi beach house is an Aussie retreat that feels Asian-inspired and ultra modern. Boasting dual-level pavilions at the front of the house with utmost privacy, the home’s operable glass walls, expressed structural timber, and interior courtyard are just a few special designer details.
