A changing room, kitchenette, guest suite, and entertaining space – all poolside. Inspired by our Castano Cove project, where an Austen model was built steps from the water.
A pool house ADU transforms outdoor entertaining from a cooler-and-lawn-chairs affair into something worth coming home to. At our Castano Cove project, a real Austen was built poolside – proving that a dedicated structure elevates every gathering.
The Austen's signature rooftop deck gives you a vantage point that overlooks your entire pool area, turning a backyard ADU into the centerpiece of outdoor living. Whether you're hosting a weekend barbecue or just want a shaded retreat between laps, the right pool house changes the way you use your property.
Contemporary rooftop living or classic cottage charm – both deliver a poolside experience your guests won't forget.
The Castano Cove project is a real Austen built poolside – and the rooftop deck overlooking the pool steals the show. The contemporary flat-roof design complements modern outdoor spaces and gives you a second level of entertaining that no traditional pool house can match.
Covered porch options complement pool areas perfectly, giving you shaded seating just steps from the water. The Charles's traditional cottage aesthetic adds character to your backyard and pairs beautifully with landscaped pool surrounds.
How you use your pool – casual weekends or serious entertaining – determines which configuration fits best.
A changing room with a bath plus a wet bar or kitchenette for poolside drinks. Everything you need to keep the party outside without tracking water through the main house.
A full kitchen for serious outdoor entertaining plus overnight guest accommodations. When pool party weekends turn into pool party weekends with houseguests, this is the configuration.
No more dripping through the main house. Guests change, shower, and freshen up steps from the pool – keeping your floors dry and your sanity intact.
A wet bar or kitchenette keeps drinks cold and snacks close. Serious entertainers can upgrade to a full kitchen and never leave the pool area to host.
Your pool house doubles as a guest suite for pool party weekends. Friends and family stay poolside instead of booking a hotel across town.
The Austen's signature rooftop deck overlooks your entire outdoor space – pool, patio, and landscaping from the best seat in the backyard.
