About East Coast Swimming PoolsĮast Coast Swimming Pools was established in 2001 with a strong commitment to quality, service and attentive project management. The result is a pool that is impressive as a standalone feature, but also looks great with the contemporary home. “The entire pool is built up out of the ground so there were foundation requirements and block work to get right before we started the pool,” explains Colin. ![]() The pool was constructed with some fairly specific engineering requirements to support the pool floor because, being a sloping block, it was constructed fully out of the ground. The ground floor below contains the bedrooms and bathrooms of the home,” explains Colin. “The block slopes down, so when you walk in from the footpath you are at the pool level, on the first floor. Five porthole windows have been built into the pool walls, which look into the ground floor of the home. The pool features a 3m negative edge, clad in chiselled granite, on one side, which faces out to parkland to the north of the pool. Once the pool structure was in place, the builders then started the next level of the home.” ![]() We put the structure in place while they were building the walls of the home around us. “They completed the ground-floor slab, then called us in to build the swimming pool. “The house is very interesting to look at and is made of glass, steel, concrete, stone and rendered finishes,” says Colin Sloggett of East Coast Pools. East Coast Pools worked with home builders Arundel Constructions to bring the pool concept to life, and both the pool and house were built simultaneously. The home, landscape and pool were all designed by the homeowners’ architect to best utilise the property’s available space and to make the most of the leafy views of the park. This exceptional pool is situated on a coveted block, adjacent to parkland in Melbourne’s eastern suburbs. Unique porthole windows along one side and a negative edge on the other make this pool the perfect match for its impressive architectural home ![]()
