Transforming Tight Spaces into Backyard Retreats: A Custom Plunge Pool by Sunshine Outdoor Living
At Sunshine Outdoor Living, we believe every backyard has the potential to be transformed into a private oasis, no matter the size. That’s exactly what we did with this custom plunge pool project in East Tennessee.
From Blank Canvas to Bold Backyard
This home in a classic brick neighborhood came with a challenge: a narrow backyard with limited space, but big dreams.
Our client wanted a low-maintenance outdoor area that was equal parts functional, relaxing, and visually stunning.
The result? A sleek, space-saving plunge pool installation that redefines what’s possible in compact outdoor living design.
Smart Pool Design for Small Spaces
We installed a premium fiberglass plunge pool surrounded by composite decking, perfect for homeowners looking for a modern pool design that’s both durable and visually seamless.
The rich brown deck complements the bold blue of the pool and furniture, creating a calming palette that's easy on the eyes and perfect for both solo dips and family hangs.
The pool features built-in seating, subtle underwater lighting, and a slim rectangular shape... ideal for narrow yards. It’s the perfect setup for soaking, cooling off, or simply enjoying the peaceful atmosphere.
Elevated Outdoor Living
To maximize the backyard's layout, we created separate zones:
- A poolside lounging area with two woven chaises and a bright blue umbrella — a bold focal point that ties the space together.
- An elevated seating area with Adirondack chairs and a black patio umbrella, ideal for evening conversations or a cup of coffee under the morning sun.
- Custom landscaping with evergreens and native plantings for year-round greenery and privacy.
Every detail, from the stacked stone walls to the artificial turf and carefully placed uplighting, was designed to offer beauty and functionality with minimal maintenance.
Why Choose a Plunge Pool?
Plunge pools are one of the fastest-growing trends in outdoor living and for good reason. They offer all the benefits of a traditional pool in a fraction of the space and cost. They’re also:
- Easier to maintain
- More energy-efficient
- Perfect for hydrotherapy or cooling off
- Ideal for homeowners with limited space
Whether you want a peaceful escape or a functional design for entertaining, a plunge pool is the smart choice for modern backyards.
