1
House with Swimming Pool
If a large modern house is too ambitious of a project for you, this modest-sized House with Swimming Pool by HALNY can make for a lovely compromise. This honeycomb-shaped residence is a delightfully artistic creation that's easy to appreciate. It features three separate compartments, a quaint pink flower garden, and two-tiered fencing that screams the suburbian look. With the right shaders, you can make the pool look transparent too—which complements the design of the build quite nicely.

Wooden Survival House
Excusing the rather dramatic angle, this Wooden Survival House by One Team does a wonderful job mirroring a cabin that fits a rural village theme.
With a few grains of Wheat growing at your home's entrance, as well as alternating bush plants sitting below the window sill, a lot of elements work like a charm in this simple yet alluring home.
And I won't forget to mention the Cobblestone and Stone Brick block placements! Gives a secure and mildly intimidating feel to the house.

Modern House
Stepping back from going a purely cottage-core route, let me introduce to you one of the first Minecraft Minecraft modern house ideas in the list – this Modern House by SheepGG.
It deceptively uses normal and dark Quartz blocks to cover up the easy-to-find wooden blocks that are used extensively in this Minecraft house build. That's not to say those logs make the build look bad. It just goes to show that you can make anything look good with the right planning and placement. And the right blocks too, of course!
4
Aquarium House
Now let's kick it up a notch and look at something mega creative. This Aquarium House by SheepGG features an expansive two-floor aquarium – filled with fish, plants, and sea life as far as the eye can see!
The aquarium fits perfectly with the aesthetic of the house. The ascending front-door staircase, the lush and orderly garden plants, the remarkable contrast between black, white, and gray – all of it comes to life in this modern-looking aquarium home.
Speaking of aquariums, here are other furniture piece ideas you can add to liven up your home.
5
Modern Treehouse
Instead of clearing out the trees in your jungle biome, why not build and expand your living space upwards instead?
This Modern Treehouse by 6tenstudio merges the natural beauty of the forest landscape and the posh beauty and luxury of modern living. From hanging lamps, natural roofing, and contemporary furniture, you get the whole package with this Minecraft house build.
What you may not immediately see in the picture above is the working elevator that brings you from floor to floor. Pretty neat, if you ask me!
6
Two-Floor Wooden House
To tell you the truth, I'm a real sucker for Skinned Log builds. It has a clean, furbished finish that scratches my minimalism itch. This Two-Floor Wooden House by JUNS MAB Architecture tutorial (yes that's the creator's name) marvelously makes use of the block in their attempt to create a humble two-floor home — and by all means, they did it right.
From the outdoor second floor, the criss-cross fence at the first-floor entryway, to the well-spaced lamps, the elements of this home just exude finesse. Suffice to say, I'm quite impressed by this one.
7
Squid Game House
On the outside, this Minecraft creation serves as a decoration to remind you of the Netflix smash hit. On the inside, well… let's just say that you can call it home.
This Squid Game House by HALNY features the iconic circle, triangle, and square symbols that many deem synonymous with the series's design. While you won't be running towards robotic little girls or hopping on deadly glass bridges inside these cubic structures, you can craft the inside of this space however you want!
8
Wooden Modern House
This Wooden Modern House by SheepGG shows a boxy design that crosses modern and cabin vibes. Peer inside, and you see each room decorated with various wildflowers and plants – divided neatly per room.
You get a glimpse of the plant haven just from looking at the exterior too. With just wooden blocks and plant life, this is one of the more interesting Minecraft modern house ideas that make the most out of its small range of materials. And let me tell you: it looks fine.

Underground House
Greatness isn't limited to soaring high castles or imposing towers that loom the skies. A flat, one-floor build can be just as spectacular too – as seen in the glorious Underground House by Spudetti.
Divided into four equal spaces, this circular fortress built entirely underground switches things up from the usual two-story home Minecraft builds. As seen from the sky, the symmetrical circular marvel is a sight to behold. And we can just imagine how good it looks to stare at the sky at night from down there.

Modern Villa House

This Modern Villa House by Akila Gaming is one that isn't stingy when it comes to showing all its frills — hanging chandeliers, an outdoor kitchen area, a bamboo garden, heck, even a jacuzzi. It's the sort of place where anyone can easily find themselves saying, "Hey, I want one of that."
With a predominantly white Quartz exterior with black outline edges, this modern villa encapsulates sleekness to the core. Definitely not something just anyone could think of in a whim, I'm sure.

Be one with the sea with this Underwater Modern House by Random Steve Guy. Glass-paned, top-to-bottom windowed walls surrounding all floors allow you to see past the submerged home and deep into the ocean floor.
And if you want to take a look outside, climb to the top floor and get a glorious view of ocean waves on all four corners of your home. I'd imagine only the boldest of us would be brave enough for this build – imagine staying here at night with no island at sight. Shudders!
13
Modern City House

You may be tired of all these modern houses – but they're well-regarded for a reason! This Epic Modern House by LubovLC features a two-floor structure with a twist. Violet-styled walls and a wooden wall design with stripes at the corner offer a little more creativity compared to the other modern homes featured in the list.
A lawn complete with a garden and sun lounge makes the deal so much sweeter too if you have to ask me. The quintessential white wall provides a striking contrast against the dominant lush backdrop of the forest, which is quite nice to see.
22
Smallest Modern House
SOURCE: Random Steve Guy
This Smallest Modern House by Random Steve Guy is so small it can practically match the size of a dirt hut!
The pride and joy of this house is the fact that it's built with just Quartz blocks and a few decorative elements. Nothing but the essentials to keep those mobs out at night. Despite its miniature stature, it still doesn't fail to look like a star.

31
Leatherworker Desert House

Sometimes, we spawn in the dense brush with trees and streams nearby. Other times, the middle of a desert is our spawning point.
This Leatherworker Desert House by BlueBits considers the latter. It's a simple design built with Wooden fences, Sandstone, and Acacia Planks, but these parts can be replaceable depending on what's available.
In a desert, having the orange of the Acacia provide contrast against the pale yellow sand is an inviting and sophisticated touch. Sure beats staying under the heat of the sun all day.
