Main St.
A custom outdoor retreat designed for work, play, and effortless outdoor living.
A vision for work & play
Our clients came to us with a long, open backyard and a vision: a pool house that could serve as a dedicated yoga studio for their small business and a flexible space for weekend gatherings. They wanted a seamless blend of function and relaxation — somewhere they could host clients during the week, enjoy quiet Sunday afternoons by the pool, and entertain family and friends with ease.
Laying the groundwork for great gatherings
With a clean slate to work from, we designed and built a multi-functional outdoor space. The project included a fully equipped pool house, a beautiful new pool and hot tub, surrounding patios and landscaping, fencing, and the necessary utilities and grading to bring it all together. One of the biggest challenges was running 300+ feet of gas and electrical lines from the house to the pool house — without disrupting the existing landscape. This meant carefully removing, then restoring, finished spaces near the home and ensuring the long asphalt driveway remained protected throughout the process.
Pool & Hot Tub
Indulge in a little poolside paradise
This stunning in-ground pool is designed for both casual afternoon dips and lively weekend gatherings. The adjoining hot tub offers a perfect spot to unwind, with subtle accent lighting enhancing the ambiance as the sun goes down.
Patio
Lounge, gather, and soak up the sun
An expansive patio seamlessly connects the pool, hot tub, and studio, creating a flexible space for everything from morning coffee to summer celebrations. Whether you’re hosting a crowd or stretching out with a book, there’s plenty of room to relax.
Pool House Structure
A bright, versatile space for work and play
Sliding glass doors open this beautiful studio right onto the pool and patio, blending indoor comfort with outdoor charm. Inside, it’s a bright, airy space — perfect as a home gym, office, or in this case, a yoga studio that transforms into an entertainment hub on weekends.
Landscaping
Surround yourself with beauty
Fresh sod, carefully graded for drainage, ensures a flawless finish. Plantings along the pool and patio soften the space, adding natural beauty and a bit of seclusion for peaceful afternoons and intimate gatherings.
Enjoying the best of both worlds
This backyard is exactly what the homeowners envisioned. The yoga studio is thriving, offering a peaceful retreat for clients, while the pool and surrounding landscape provide the perfect setting for family time, relaxation, and social gatherings. Whether it's a quiet morning on the mat or a lively evening by the pool, this space delivers on every level.
