Monomoy Road

Surveying his new lot after purchase, this buyer discovered that he had twice the area he anticipated. Unfortunately the extra land went right behind his next two neighbors. He wanted a very large pool with a lot of privacy. Using landforms and specially selected trees and shrubs, we were able to squeeze the pool into its setting and no one else knows it’s there. The driveway was difficult to maneuver, so we realigned and straightened it and added parking so it all made sense. New gardens around the Monomoy Road house make it feel extraordinary, but intimate. The custom pool has a special shallow ledge for hanging out, a treatment similar to the historic Art Deco pool at the Delano Hotel in Miami Beach. The pool has a lane for laps, a seat bench all the way around, and a detached Jacuzzi spa. There’s a writer’s loft anchoring the end of the yard where another historical thriller novel gets the attention it deserves.
