As inviting as it is dazzling, this seemingly simple outdoor oasis is elevated by an eye-catching poolscape and high-quality stonework. With its clean lines and adherence to geometry, the pool has a modern feel that nicely complements the adjacent screened-in patio. A raised stacked-stone wall on one end of the pool serves both form and function – not only does it add an extra dimension to the pool’s design, but it also holds two sheer descent waterfalls that supply soothing sounds for optimal relaxation. These water features are best enjoyed from the integrated square spa, which incorporates the same piercing blue tilework as the pool’s edges. Surrounding the pool is plentiful seating and a state-of-the-art grilling area showcasing more of the same stacked stone; with these additions, a tranquil pool day can easily transform into a lively pool party in the evening.
