A
swimming pool is an enjoyable—and expensive—luxury in any home.
But in some households, the reasons far outweigh the cost, and the
expense is well-worth the price.
First
of all, a pool is a perfect venue for exercise. Daily exercise is a
good way to keep fit, but some exercises are better than others.
Swimming is a great whole body exercise that is low-impact; this
means that it is not as demanding as other sports like running or
basketball. Additionally, it forces people to use their entire body,
making it the perfect cardiovascular workout.
Second,
it is a great place for family and friends to relax. Having your own
pool at home makes it easier to relax and have a good time. It can be
a great social centerpiece; just invite people and have a barbecue as
the kids romp in the pool.
Third,
a pool can increase one’s home’s value. Pools are expensive to
build and maintain. However, because they are usually worth the
trouble, many prospective homeowners think of them as worth the
price. The National Association of Realtors recently discovered that
a pool can add five percent to a home’s value. This means a
$400,000 home can receive a $20,000 bonus with a pool installed.
For
all of these reasons, swimming pools are a great investment for one’s
lifestyle and overall home value.
