If you're looking to spend some much needed vacation time down by the seaside, then these modern beach homes are the perfect option for vacationers who want to combine oceanfront living and sophisticated touches.
While living by the beach often suggests a more rustic and natural type of accommodation, these ultra modern and minimalist oceanfront homes are seeking to appeal to a consumer who is much more interested in aesthetic design than overall comfort. A perfect example of how modern day architectural designs are making their way to the most rustic and secluded areas, these modern beach homes are allowing individuals to enjoy the wonders of the ocean while living extravagantly in these stunning structures.
From rocky beachside abodes to airy oceanfront homes, these modern beach homes will definitely make any seaside vacation something to remember.
