Curb appeal is one thing but a plush, lively, and clean backyard is like having a good ass too!  Who doesn’t want a great ass?

Austin, TX inspired me with the horizontal slat fence that could be spotted everywhere. These awesome inspiration images were the inspiration for the remodel in Miami Shores.

We are considering an above ground pool and I am playing with the idea of different heights throughout the backyard each with a different surface material.   Ideally I would like a seamless transition from the flooring on the interior of the house to the deck on the exterior that is level with the above ground pool and lucky me the house is situated perfectly to achieve this.  I love how Secret Gardens, and Australian company accomplished just that in their Randwick project in their pictures below:

I am going to leave this last photo from the inspiration home. In Florida it is a must-have on any home buyers list. In my remodel, the pool was a little bit of stretch at the time. If you can do it, go for it! Maybe whoever loves this house more than me can try to pull it off. (Was that a dig? Totally.)
