Three Reasons to Invest in an Outdoor Living Space
We understand that commissioning a backyard swimming pool and outdoor living space from Southern Serenity Pools is a hefty investment – and we want you to know that we don’t take it lightly. Whenever we start a new pool building project, we realize we have the privilege of being an agent in bringing your dreams to fruition and the impact on your life is far greater than building a pool. We are partnering with you to invest in building a life of serenity and enjoyment. THIS is why we build pools and what we enjoy most about our work.
1. Build Relationships and Make Treasured Memories
The centerpiece of the outdoor space, a swimming pool becomes a refreshing refuge where you can play and frolic with your loved ones. Entertainment areas, fire pits, and outdoor kitchens provide the perfect places to gather, share stories, laugh and connect. Suddenly, your backyard becomes a literal time-out from the rigors of modern life (not to mention the Florida heat). Stepping away from the busy hustle, something magical happens in your relationships. You connect again and make treasured memories – and isn’t that what life is all about?
We know there are many other ways to build relationships and make treasured memories with your loved ones, but there’s just something about an outdoor living space that invites you to slow down and linger with one another. It’s like taking unlimited vacations without ever leaving your home.
Our clients tell us spending more time gathering with friends and family is one of their top reasons to invest in a swimming pool and outdoor living space. To them, gathering around an outdoor fire pit with friends and family while enjoying delicious food fresh off the grill in the outdoor kitchen beats a travel vacation any day – and we agree. Give us the staycation all day long!
2. Invest in Your Well-being
Science tells us that connecting with the outdoors is as essential to our well-being as connecting with people. It’s not just fresh air and exercise that rejuvenates us, but beauty – particularly natural beauty.
An outdoor living space designed with this in mind becomes a haven where your senses can recalibrate so that your well-being flourishes. With a beautifully landscaped and hardscaped backyard and a pool with a built-in spa, the stress will melt away from your body, bringing much-needed relaxation. You don’t need us to tell you that stress is enemy #1. But imagine a backyard oasis you can access any time to combat stress and all of its effects on your well-being. We think you’ll agree that investing in your vitality and longevity is an investment worth making.
3. Increase the Value of Your Home
Money isn’t everything. But doesn’t it bring you peace of mind to know that building an outdoor spaces can bring a return on your investment? According to Belgard, our vendor of choice for pavers and outdoor spaces, in some cases that ROI is 100%! This means that not only are you investing in the truly priceless things in life like cultivating relationships and wellbeing, but the money and effort you invest will be truly well spent and bring a solid return should you ever decide to sell your home. To us, that peace of mind more than makes the investment in an outdoor space worth it.
We can think of dozens more reasons our clients have shared with us to invest in a pool and an outdoor living space. Each homeowner we’ve worked with has unique goals and desires, but again and again, these top three reasons are cited that make the investment worth it.
