| Investing in Palermo's future: A new spa is going in on Sunburst |
Positively Palermo has been asked about the number and type of private pools, spools and spas in our community. The ongoing installation of a spa in the front yard of a two-bedroom G-unit on Sunburst Blvd. — see the above picture — has sparked interested because no private spa has been installed since 2008 or 2009. This new front-yard spa will be the first installed in any of the 34 single-level units. All the other private pools and spas are in the back yards of the 83 two-story townhomes. According to this site's information, there are about 21 private pools or spas at Palermo. The developer put most of them in before the concrete backyard walls went up. Many of these spas are in the back yards of condos on Melody Lane. There are numerous barriers to putting in more spas in the townhome back yards. One is that the vast majority of the units without a backyard spa can only be accessed through the garage door, making installation more difficult. In fact, only about 15 of the 83 two-story townhomes have outside gates that directly access their back yards. About half of these already have spas. As for the variety, Palermo units have spas and spools (a spa and small pool that share a common wall). At least one unit has a pool and spa that are completely separate and in different parts of the yard. Miss Penny Lane says: Congratulations to the new homeowner on Sunburst, and thank you for investing in Palermo's future by making such an improvement.

We put our spa in after the home was built, and the only access was through the garage. It wasn't a big problem for our pool contractor, but they had to dig the hole by hand. I'm guessing they wouldn't do an olympic sized pool with that method! So, don't let limited access stop you from enjoying a splash.
