Understated Elegance

Elegant simplicity helps this pool’s design really shine. Perfectly fitted to its wooded lot, the subtly curved swimming pool is outlined and edged by poured-in-place cantilever soft coping, accentuated with a stamped finish. The rest of the decking is stamped concrete that blends in seamlessly with the pool’s natural setting. The interior shell of the pool is lined with quartz aggregate to highlight the beauty of the water. A sun shelf with built-in bubblers and underwater umbrella stands, combined with discrete underwater benches in the deep end, all serve to elevate this pool to an opulent retreat.

To one end of the pool is an outdoor living area. A stately stone two-sided fireplace faces out to a seating area near the pool and into the living area under the covered portico. This area features a luxuriant outdoor kitchen, bar, multiple seating arrangements, and a large television, taking this outdoor escape to the next level.
