A swim-up bar is at the disposal of the residents, carving out a perfect spot to unwind. The commercial-grade lazy river encircling the pool is definitely the standout amenity, accompanied by a bridge to a sundeck and a splash pad designed for children’s enjoyment.
The pool was built with a dynamic functionality in mind – to provide a breathtaking view of the sunsets, shared John Booth, the seller who renovated the home and added these stunning features. To add modern convenience, the water and lighting attributes are governed by an app.
