Step into an outdoor space where the garden is not only an extension of the home, but embodies a sporting lifestyle. This utterly expertly landscaped garden exudes tranquility, class and the subtle nautical character of Sails & Silence.
At the center of this garden, a sleek stainless steel swimming pool literally sparkles. Chosen for the unique properties of stainless steel—frost, heat, and UV resistant (and therefore very durable)—it is also very hygienic and, above all, aesthetically pleasing due to its unique reflection of sunlight. The outdoor pool is equipped with a Swimm counter-current system – the perfect partner for an energetic morning dip or a refreshing workout at the end of the day. During the day, children can play endlessly in the plunge pool with the cheerfully bobbing unicorn.
Around the counter-current pool, we laid a sleek pool terrace made of Ipé outdoor parquet, blind-fastened with the invisible B-Fix system. The grayed wood tones with fine wood grain match beautifully with the cool steel of the pool, while the perfect lines evoke a sense of tranquility.
The bright red Glatz parasol, strategically placed above the picnic terrace, is a real eye-catcher. Like a modern sail, this parasol creates shade and atmosphere, enhancing the luxurious, nautical ambiance. Next to the terrace, the Dutch flag flutters proudly high on the flagpole in the gentle breeze—a subtle nod to the water, the wind, and the freedom of sailing.
Directly adjacent to the kitchen-diner is a spacious ceramic terrace by GeoCeramica – stylish, low-maintenance paving where the whole family can enjoy comfortable al fresco dining. The open layout creates a natural transition between indoors and outdoors, with sightlines extending into the greenery.
Hidden among the graceful greenery is a robust outdoor shower from Jee-O—a sculptural object that combines luxury and functionality. Here, surrounded by swaying grasses and green ferns, it is as if you are immersing yourself in a private spa, surrounded by nature.
The spacious lawn forms the heart of the garden, framed by colorful borders and playful ornamental grasses that dance in the wind. These plants have been carefully selected to complement the nearby De Poel nature reserve, with which the garden enters into a harmonious dialogue. Mature trees, including a majestic multi-stemmed rhododendron, are subtly illuminated.
Upon arrival, you are welcomed by an elegant entrance paved with distinctive, large-format Schellevis tiles—a statement of refined simplicity that immediately sets the tone for what is to come.
This sustainably landscaped garden is not just a garden for life, but a place of strength and calm, of luxury and balance. Sails & Silence – where outdoor living feels like an endless summer day on the water.
