The Modern House: An Estate Agency with a Difference

I don’t know about you, but even though I’m not looking to move at the moment, I often find myself browsing online at homes for sale. Usually it’s because I’m daydreaming about the time when I can live in one myself, but also it’s to get inspiration for my own home.

So you can imagine my excitement when I discovered ‘The Modern House’. This is an estate agency with a difference. These homes are BEAUTIFUL! Either architecturally designed or the homes of artists, designers and creatives, you will be drooling they are so good!

“The Modern House is an estate agency that helps people live in more thoughtful and beautiful ways. We believe in design as a powerful force for good – from personal factors such as wealth and wellbeing to more macro themes including community, place-making and architectural preservation. Esquire credits The Modern House with rewriting “the rulebook on estate agency”, and GQ has voted us “one of the best things in the world”.

Along with stunning interiors and intriguing architectural details, the homes featured are for sale. Yes! So for those dreamers (and determined) house lovers out there, lose yourself for hours scrolling through the ‘Buy’ section. You never know, you might even find your next home.



Even better news… it’s not just an estate agency.

The Directory provides details of professionals who can help you create your own dream home.

“Whether you're looking to commission a one-off home or choose a new lamp, our A to Z resource of architects, designers and brands endorsed by The Modern House is here to point you in the right direction.”

Then there is the Journal. Here you can find inspiration on interiors, architecture, design and lifestyle via interviews with creatives, photo journals and tips.

I’d suggest setting aside a couple of hours if it’s the first time you are visiting the site, because if you are anything like me, you won’t be able to stop reading!


To do your own house hunting or dreaming, head over to The Modern House. (And don’t forget to invite me over if you move into one!)
