Crystal Pools Project 1

It’s no surprise that this impressive multi-purpose swimming pool was a Hills Building & design Awards winning project. The expansive pool, built on acreage in Annangrove, has something for everyone.

The homeowners wanted a pool that would cater to the needs of a young and fitness-conscious family for years to come. it includes a 16.7m x 3m lap pool with dive platform, an 8-metre wide general swimming area with spa and relaxing ledges, as well as a slide for the younger children.

The pool is positioned at the rear of the home with an unimpeded outlook over the property. The sloping block allowed for a slate wet-edge to be created by levelling the yard with a retaining wall.

The 20mm x 20mm glass mosaics that were selected for the pool surface combine beautifully with the surrounding marble paving and glass fencing to create aesthetic cohesion between the outdoor area, home exterior and bushland beyond.

Featuring a salt chlorinator and fully automatic cleaning system from AstralPool, gas heating and in-house automation, the pool meets the low-maintenance requirements of the busy homeowners.

Crystal Pools celebrates its 60th anniversary in 2017 and remains Australia’s longest-operating pool company. since 1957, the company has built more than 20,000 residential pools and 1000 commercial pools, and won more than 220 major state, national and international awards.

Over the decades, the quality of its work has led to work on some of sydney’s landmark properties, such as Admiralty House at Kirribilli, which boasts one of the best views in sydney and is still in regular use today. other notable projects include Wally “Toyota” Truscott’s harbourside mansion and pools for Australian celebrities like dame Joan sutherland and graham Kennedy.

As the builder of some of the largest and most prestigious projects in the country – such as the 2018 Commonwealth games’ swimming complex on the gold Coast – Crystal Pools applies the same exacting engineering standards to its residential pools as it does for its FinA-standard olympic pools.
