Take the Plunge

When it comes to pools it's not always size that matters. Take a peek at this backyard oasis behind featuring a new plunge pool, pergola, outdoor kitchen, tropical plantings, containers, pergola and lighting all designed and installed by Outdoor Design & Living (Fairfield, CT).

If you’re thinking about taking the plunge, here are 5 reasons why it’s a good idea:

💦 SPACE SAVING: great for homes with smaller yards or patios

💦 RELAXING: designed for quick dips and cooling off - no pool parties with 50 kids happening here. Have an intimate gathering or take some alone time

💦 WELLNESS: cool plunge pools can stimulate blood circulation, help reduce inflammation and be used in hydrotherapy. AND plunge pools also have the option to heat like regular pools and they can be used YEAR-ROUND.

💦 COST: small pools require less water to fill and maintain compared to larger pools leading to lower chemical usage, less cleaning and reduced heating and maintenance costs. According to Outdoor Design & Living, install costs for an in-ground plunge pool range from $31,000 to $45,000 depending on other additions (i.e.: plantings, lighting, audio, etc) 

💦 LEAD TIMES: faster than putting in a larger pool. Similar process in terms of permits but usually it’s about a month faster to get the plunge pool complete.  

This backyard belongs to Fairfield resident & realtor Cindy Raney - so it must be good for home values, too! Thanks for the peek, Cindy!
