MOUNTAIN PARADISE

The perfect place to relax on a hot summer day, this swimming pool offers both breathtaking natural beauty and the capacity for conveniences like landscape lighting, audio systems and irrigation. Stand-out details like locally-harvested stone, diving platforms, a waterfall, bluestone patios, planting beds and stone steps, however, are what make this space a true aquatic oasis.
