A Relaxing Beach Home with a Killer View
Let’s Head Over for Some Coastal Fun…
This contemporary beach cabin is hands down the absolute perfect place to unwind. With wooden rustic attire, it not only captivates from outside, but is accompanied with a straightforward simple elegance on the inside too. So relax, put your feet up, sip your coffee, and join me through this photo tour!
Updating the bach concept, Johnston included a fully-glazed end wall, which required a bit of slightly more complex engineering. Steel tension rods arranged in an X pattern keep the gable end from racking sideways when hit by high winds or an earthquake. The steel rods were chosen over other options so as to minimally obstruct the view. At the back, behind the kitchen, are the bathroom, laundry and storage areas. There are two bedrooms upstairs in the mezzanine loft, one of which overlooks the living room and shares its view through the gable wall.
If you’d like to vacation in a relatively undeveloped part of New Zealand, the Taieri Mouth Bach is available for rent.
