If you lived in the Joc House, you wouldn't feel the need for a vacation or getaway. The reason why I say this is because it looks like a resort in and of itself. More of a mansion than a house, it holds pretty much any luxury a human being could ever ask for.
Designed by Nico van der Meulen Architects, the Joc House is located in Johannesburg, South Africa. With a stunning, open concept entrance, an indoor pool, waiting area-like living rooms and bar-like kitchens, this Joc House is undeniably luxurious to say the least.
With this awesome resort home, you can save plenty of dough as you can now skip out on having to actually go on an all-inclusive vacation. Check out the wicked designs of this Joc House for yourselves in the featured gallery.
