This might just create a new history among backyard pools. Apparently, a Texas man Eugene Lochman has designed and created a gorgeous backyard pool which indeed is a class apart from other luxury tubs that we have come to know so far. Well, Lochman’s thing is really a waterfall with a capacity of 50,000-gallon making it the king of all home watering holes.

The pool is remote controlled and has enough place for 15 people to relax and unwind along an underwater bench and a table. As delicious as it may sound, the whole thing is really something with the numerous fountains, a bridge shower, a 260-foot lazy river, underwater bar stools fog machines, a hot-tub cabana and a special lighting system.

Spread over 48,000 square feet, this self-effacing little chalet sitting on 140 acres is 15 minutes away from the north of Dallas Airport, Texas. Taking inspiration from numerous buildings, almost four-long years were invested constructing it. It features an indoor pool, an L-shaped outdoor pool that’s bordered by courtyard of uneven flagstones, shade trees and vast stretch of turf. An entry into this villa would make you realize the level of profligacy done on this two-story master clandestine and ballroom is evocative of Versailles.

The media room imitates the Paris Opera, equipped with theater boxes. Its 78-foot-high rotunda is pinnacled by a crows nest offering distant views. Other striking highlights of the estate include hand-carved moldings, custom-made Italian chandeliers, imported fabrics, carpets and much more. How can I forget to mention that it has no less than nine fireplaces, six bedding and 6.8 baths?
