Florida Boating Paradise With Dock, Mini Boardwalk and Luxury Entertaining Spaces
Drop anchor beside this spectacular outdoor oasis and you’ll never want to leave. The terraced outdoor space includes everything from a multi-level pool with lounging and cocktail areas, a sunken seating area with fire table, a professional outdoor kitchen and views of the waterfront from every perch imaginable.
Waterfront Corner Backyard With Yellow Awning
This corner backyard has the best location, right on the water with its own dock and mini boardwalk. The yard itself is another oasis with a pool, hot tub and outdoor kitchen.

Multi Level Backyard With Louvered Pergola
A multi-level approach made this sloped backyard much easier to enjoy. An outdoor kitchen, dining area, pool and lounge are subtly separated by retaining walls. The top patio is shaded by a louvered pergola that can open and close as the weather requires.

Multi Level Backyard With Built In Benches
Retaining walls give a sense of separation between this backyard's three main areas: an outdoor kitchen and dining room, the swimming pool and a lower-level lounge with built-in benches and a fire table.

Swimming Pool With White Lounge Chairs
Like the rest of this backyard, the pool has multiple dimensions, too. One end is dedicated to lounging with a raised platform and slightly submerged chairs. Fountains spout all along the back wall. And there's even a swim-up table for resting cocktails.

Terraced Backyard With Fire Table
This backyard was once steeply sloped and, as such, was hard to use. Careful landscape design reconfigured it into three separate levels: one for cooking and dining, one for swimming and one, with a fire pit, for lounging.

Fire Table and Water View
This patio's fire table makes it possible to enjoy the waterfront views even when the nights get chilly.
