While there’s no denying that a villa with a swimming pool is a great added feature to a well-deserved holiday in Tuscany, owning a private swimming pool was a dream for a privileged few up until a few years ago.
Nowadays, thanks to technological innovations, new methods, and the use of ever-innovative materials, swimming pools are an essential must-have for our properties, and they are an added value for the entire property. They are an investment that will last into the future, upping the value of the grounds and the entire home, creating an evocative background for poolside parties and dinners.
Professional jobs by landscape architects and thorough planning of green spaces make it easy to add a swimming pool in harmony with the grounds, making the garden more homelike and creating a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. Depending on how much room there is, the type of soil, the construction permits you need, and the desired end result, there are several types of pool you can choose from.
