GET some summertime inspiration while it lasts with Ray White’s list of the most unique and fabulous pools on the market.
Once considered something for the ultra-rich, pool ownership is now firmly on the rise with research from Roy Morgan showing that as of 2018, there were 2.7 million Aussies with a backyard pool. Now that the once coveted swimming pool has become more common, buyers are looking for exciting new designs that really push the envelope just like these six amazing properties.
What better way to make an impact than with a massive, resort-style pool like this one in Dalkeith? Your friends will never leave since the pool also features a swim-up bar, adjoining spa and poolside barbeque house.
But it’s no surprise that the house has such an impressive pool as Ray White Cottesloe | Mosman Park owner and director Jody Fewster said the property was originally designed by renowned architect Geoffrey Summerhayes.
For those not in the know, Summerhayes is a pioneer of modern architecture whose work includes The Coombe House at Mosman Park and the Summerhayes House in Perth. The current owners are looking to part with the house for $35 million.
If you want to experience a bit of class while lounging by the pool then look no further than this Balwyn mansion which Ray White Balwyn’s Helen Yan said represents the epitome of Georgian finesse and impressive opulence.
With all the fixtures of a classic Melbourne character-style home, the property also has an in-house cinema, water feature and alfresco dining area. The property is currently on an expressions of interest campaign and has already had some strong interest.
97 Elizabeth Bay Road, Elizabeth Bay NSW
If you’re after something that combines nature and individuality then this Elizabeth Bay pool fits the bill as it’s actually a private seawater bath meaning no more trips to the crowded Bondi Icebergs.
Selling agent Brad Hillier of Ray White Woollahra said the pool has an amazing view across the water to Clark Island and the Manly skyline. Also included in the house is a private jetty so when you’ve had enough of the pool you can head out into the ocean from Elizabeth Bay.
49 Statenborough Street, Leabrook SA
This Leabrook property is screened by a rainforest-like front garden so you’d be forgiven for not realising there’s a large in-ground pool out the back that looks like it would fit in at a resort instead of a family home.
Ray White Norwood sales executive Brandon Pilgrim said not only is the pool big enough to host your next family Christmas but it also has a bridge that leads to a barbeque and change room area.
41-43 Angus Ave, Ringwood East VIC
Rain, hail or shine - nothing is stopping you from having a quick dip in this indoor pool and spa. The property also has a tennis court making the pool the perfect place for a post-match cool down.
Ray White Bayswater agent Peter Munt said the pool is a stand out feature that sets the bar high for beautiful, luxury living within close proximity to transport, shopping, and a selection of prominent schools. The house also has an amazing 13-car garage that currently houses the seller’s impressive classic collection. Currently, on an expression of interest campaign, the property is perfect for buyers looking for high quality living and a great pool.
Swim out into the distance in this luxury pool that seems to go on forever. Ray White Brisbane CBD’s Julian Gardner said the resort-style infinity pool has a great view over the bay while also being in an affordable, family orientated bayside suburb.
The rest of the five bedroom, two storey home won’t disappoint, featuring a home cinema, large balcony and is within walking distance of Manly’s great parks and restaurants.
