Small-footprint pools for compact inner-Bellingen blocks, finished with water features, seating ledges, heating and lighting for a complete result.
A courtyard pool is the design answer for Spicketts Creek properties where space is tight but the appeal of a pool is not. Rather than scaling down a standard layout, Small & Courtyard Pools treats the small area as its own brief: a compact pool sized to a terrace, a narrow side space or an inner-Bellingen block, with the surrounds planned so the whole courtyard works as an outdoor room. Small pools take well to features that lift the experience without needing more room, such as a water blade or spillway, a built-in ledge for sitting in the shallows, heating to extend the season and lighting to make the space inviting after dark. Construction can be concrete or fibreglass. Concrete is the usual choice on irregular or very confined blocks because it is formed in place and can follow walls and boundaries exactly; a fibreglass shell is quicker wherever a regular space and crane access make it feasible. The small water volume keeps heating and running costs modest, which suits a Coffs Harbour - Grafton household wanting frequent use. The build runs through the standard stages of approval, excavation, the shell, plumbing and surrounds, and compliance is identical to any pool, with a conforming AS 1926.1 barrier and a pool-register listing required. For a Spicketts Creek site, the decisive practical factors are getting machinery or a crane into a confined area and the layout of decking, screening and planting around the water. Handled well across Bellingen, a courtyard pool turns what might otherwise be a leftover corner into the best part of a small property, proving that a modest footprint need not mean a modest result.
