Hello,
Everyone and their in-laws seem to have their pool in the back yard, but we don't have room. We do have a spot in front that might work. What do y'all think about this setup? My wife and I plan to stay here for a long while, but we don't want to do a big investment that will end up looking silly.
We're leaning toward a 20x40 rectangular vinyl or 16x40 fiberglass, for laps and horseplay. The proposed site will get good sun.
We would do some clearing into woods in front of and downhill from our house. There would be a wooded buffer to screen most of the pool area from the driveway (see sketch). The big pine in the middle of the picture would be the right side of the clearing. View from house:
View from driveway - upper/house:
View from driveway - lower/proposed area to clear for pool:
And sketch:
Hopefully the lay of the land is decipherable. Any ideas/insights/guidance are most welcome, and many thanks in advance!
