We had a beautiful large pool when our kids were growing up in Clearwater, Fl. It was used daily, except in very cold weather. Hubby and I loved taking a dip after the kids were in bed to share our thoughts of the day and wind down for the night. We loved our pool!
But, when we moved here we did t once consider a pool. We were thrilled with the neighborhood pool around the corner. I guess we go at off hours. Most often we are the only ones there. We find that we share our thoughts of our day and wind down for the night, AND someone else does the maintenance and it is always lovely!
We opted for a fabulous view instead and that, never grows old.
Different strokes for different folks, and for different stages in our lives too, I guess.
Our neighbors who have pools do not seem to use them frequently. They enjoy their pools and the atmosphere it provides and so they are happy.
If it’s a priority to you then go for it!!
Good luck to you in finding your perfect home!
