Who of us has not wished to own a beautiful swimming pool designed and built in a garden at a home backyard, aren’t you? Who has not thought of it? I guess everybody has. It’s no wonder because a swimming pool at your home is not only improves and beautifies a landscape but can turn into real unique place to relax, sport, meet with friends to enjoy swimming without having to leave home.

If you are going to build an outdoor swimming pool in a private property you have to start from an architect’s and real estate developer’s point of view. The cost of building a pool is also has to be considering intently. Then you have to decide what do you intend with – you want to dive on it, you want your kids will be able to use it without fear of drowning or you want to practice in your swim. All these things are very important and dictate the right size of your future swimming pool.
There are a lot of things you have to do to get finally what you have wished about. But after all I’m sure you get the result that is beyond expectation. Like George Clooney who purchased this 25-room Italian villa in 2001. Known as Villa Oleandra, it is said to contain an outdoor theater, a large swimming pool and a garage for motorcycles. Italian journalists and tourists swarmed to the small town of Laglio, where this villa is located, when they heard rumors that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie would wed at pal George Clooney’s lakeside estate. Clooney has some illustrious neighbors as well – designer Donatella Versace owns a home on Lake Como near the burial place of her late brother Gianni. Singer Avril Lavigne and husband Deryck Whimbey honeymooned in Lake Como a few years ago as well. Clooney really admires this home and says, “I go there whenever I can. It’s where I wrote Good Night And Good Luck and where I finished the script for Leatherheads. It’s a really peaceful place to go and write.”
