Indoor pools make a splash on the Perth property market
IF you enjoy a swim but the thought of a winter morning dip chills you to the bone, here’s the solution — your own indoor pool.
THEY’RE not the most common luxury home feature on the market — but what could be more decadent than taking a dip in your own indoor pool as winter storms rage outside?
These five homes with fabulous indoor pools are currently on the market in Perth.
They range from about $1m to $4.5m and can be found in seemingly regular family homes to architectural marvels.
This grand Rossmoyne home on a 3250sq m block by the river could fit just as well on a Bayou in Louisiana.
The two-storey home has an expansive terrace, lush gardens, a boat house and a pool room with glass walls, a curved glass roof, a water feature and a 25m tiled swimming pool.
It’s on the market for about $4.5m.
In The Vines, this two-storey family home is more affordable with offers invested over $1m.
It’s located by the golf course and has a below-ground swimming pool in a glass room adjoined to the main house.
Overlooking a green backyard and the estate beyond, the pool’s tiled area allows for entertaining at any time of the year.
An indoor pool is the centrepiece of this architecturally-striking home in Waikiki.
With its multiple levels, glass dome ceilings and elevated beachfront location, you would expect something fairly impressive inside.
The blue-tiled roman-bath like pool at the heart of the home doesn’t disappoint.
It can be seen from the home’s main rooms through big internal windows and is lit by multiple skylights.
The home is on the market with well-known Perth agent Willie Porteous for between $3 and $4m.
Alternatively, it would be hard to tell from this Kallaroo home’s exterior that inside there was an indoor pool with a cedar-lined skylight and a barbecue area.
The two-storey family home also has a teenager’s retreat loft area that overlooks the pool.
An indoor pool takes up one wing of this entertainer’s dream in Banjup.
Apart from the pool room, which can open out onto the alfresco area complete with a pizza oven, the semirural residence features a games room, a bar, a theatre room, a children’s playground and a lounge area with a built-in fish tank.
