Here’s All You Need To Know About This Home: A Pool

Yesterday I was talking to a friend about this HEAT and he clocked it at 136. Not technically, but isn’t it??? It’s oppressive, y’all. And it came early this year which means all the wishing wells and public fountains are filled with coins attached to the hopes and dreams of a backyard pool. And just like that, CandysDirt.com delivers.

Here’s a spectacular pool in East Richardson. It’s a big one, too, so you won’t cook like macaroni while you swim. (That’s deep, cool water.) The recently-added pool has smooth wide tile around the edge and gives you big-time California vibes. Plus, you bet your sweet SwimEar there are lines tiled into the bottom of the pool. Who are you racing? Let’s rephrase that, who AREN’T you racing?? Challenge the neighborhood kids, the delivery guy, an overconfident labradoodle. Basically, anyone that shows up on your doorsteps. Include all your party goers because with that big ol’ backyard, room for loungers, and greenspace galore, you’ll for sure become the host of your friend group, and no doubt even some periphery players will worm their way in.

On the inside of this 1960s flex space home – it can be a three-, four-, or five-bedroom – it just keeps getting better and better. Fresh interior paint, a kitchen update, new flooring, and a remodeled primary bathroom and closet, too. Outside they replaced the roof and added a new fence and landscaping. It’s hard not to wander back outside in this house. Even in words.

There’s a lot to love with what they’ve done – not only did they open it up by removing some walls, but they also went sleek and modern with blue kitchen cabinets, paired with a super simple subway tile backsplash. Gray-toned planked flooring and a deep charcoal on the fireplace add a dramatic statement.

The primary bathroom is stunning and has a huge — like HUGE — EXTRA shower. I love the triple tile combo in there where it builds from square to rectangle to RECTANGLE. All in the same tones. There’s a floating sink slash vanity with copper fixtures. Like damn, it looks so good.
