Who said a beach house is expensive?
This beautiful beach house is located in Coromandel, New Zealand and is made out of two remodeled shipping container that has everything you need, living area, shower, bedroom, kitchen, bar and it even has a chimney for that chilly breeze in the evening!
Sustainable, natural timber runs the length of the box structure, supported by sturdy struts, which makes the construction appear reminiscent of the rafter dams that were popular in the region at the turn of the last century. The boarded box opens up to reveal a simple interior layout, where the living room is free to soak up the sun and take in the tranquil location, a patch of cleared bush with an ocean view, where it takes on a campsite ambiance.
The bedrooms are separate and enclosed in order to stay cool in the summer, and an open bathroom option, complete with movable bathtub, means that the family can remain close to nature even when bathing; on the opposite end of the scale, the installation of a generous fireplace also allows the place to be transformed into a cozy wintertime getaway.
