Stone Plunge Pool by Modern Farmhouse

Beside a modern farmhouse featuring white board-and-batten siding, black windows, and a metal roof, a rectangular plunge pool sits framed by stone coping, gravel paths, bluestone pavers, and timber planter boxes filled with white hydrangeas.

Design notes

Farmhouse pools are simple rectangles set in lawn or gravel beside a white house with black windows. Look for bluestone or concrete coping, a cedar or metal-roofed pool house, a stock-tank or plunge pool on smaller lots, and planting kept to hydrangeas, grasses and a few shade trees. Furniture is black or natural teak, never resort-white.

What to look for

  • The coping — how the deck meets the water sets the whole tone
  • Where the spa sits and how it spills into the pool
  • Night lighting: which features glow and which stay dark
