Views on Allenby – Award-Winning Pool Renovation in Lilydale
In the picturesque locale of Lilydale, where stunning views of the Yarra Valley stretch out before you, one home sought to elevate its outdoor living and entertaining area.
Their existing pool and spa, while once a source of enjoyment, had begun to show its age, no longer complementing the home’s contemporary aesthetic or meeting modern demands for efficiency and comfort.
Exotic Pools are a well-known pool builder in Melbourne, that had stepped in at this point and started an incredible renovation project that not only turned an outdated area into a contemporary masterpiece but also won them a prestigious “Highly Commended” award at the most recent SPASA awards in Melbourne.
48 mm Ash Grey ceramic mosaics were used to resurface the pool’s interior, giving the area a modern yet classic appearance.
In addition to matching the muted tones of the home’s façade, these tiles were specifically chosen to go well with the recently laid Tundra Grey pavers that were added as part of the renovation.
The colour scheme works well together to improve the transition between the house and its beautiful surroundings.
Old Swimming Pool Issues
However, the project wasn’t without its complexities.
The removal of the old, rendered interior unearthed some unforeseen structural concerns, a challenge that could derail less experienced builders.
However, Exotic Pools’ proficiency was evident, showcasing their ability to solve problems and guarantee the longevity and integrity of the recently refurbished pool.
This project stands out due to its attention to detail and commitment to structural soundness.
Beyond the aesthetics, the renovation significantly upgraded the pool’s functionality and user experience.
The equipment was brought into the 21st century with an upgrade to the HALO Connect system, allowing the clients to effortlessly control their pool and spa from their phone or tablet.
The Transformation
The lighting was transformed with Spa Electrics LED multi-coloured lights, adding a vibrant and dynamic ambiance for evening swims and entertaining. A new gas heater was also installed specifically for the spa, ensuring warm, inviting waters whenever desired.
The switch from salt to magnesium in the pool water was arguably one of the most considerate and important modifications.
This revolutionary change is well-known for its ability to reduce stress and has many benefits, especially for those with sensitive skin or allergies.
This emphasis on overall health highlights Exotic Pools’ commitment to designing areas that improve their customers’ quality of life in addition to being aesthetically pleasing.
The finished project, with its revitalised spa area and integrated swim-out, is now as gorgeous as it is functional. The new Ash Grey tiles perfectly complement the Tundra Grey pavers, creating a fluid transition from the home’s exterior to the natural landscape beyond.
The “Views on Allenby” project stands as a testament to Exotic Pools’ commitment to excellence, their ability to overcome challenges, and their vision for creating award-winning, family-friendly outdoor havens that truly meet and exceed customer expectations.
It’s a prime example of how a dated pool can be transformed into a modern masterpiece, earning well-deserved recognition in the industry.
