Perched on a rock with steps down into the sea, coastal living doesn’t get much better than this. This home is packed to the rafters with modern charm and all the amenities you could wish for, while the private pool makes the most of the views outdoors. The upper floor has its own seating area, bathroom, and bedroom, allowing two guests absolute privacy here with sea vistas thrown in for good measure.
