Narrow table 36 x 77
shady sitting area as well as the narrow pool...likely 5 or 6 feet wide....could be nice to have a 5' x 5' and 4 1/2' deep plunge pool same height as the deck....which will be 24" off the ground, so pool only needs to be 2 1/2' underground..and surround would be the wood deck joined to the house and floor level.
see how they've dipped the sidewalk down to make stairs up to the porch? I would have left the sidewalk - at the same level as one step from the porch. good pillars, good shed dormer. Could imagine a garage to the left with breezeway or glassed in entry to laundry/bathroom (north elevation)....of our vacant lot. And the porch or covered walkway around to the south elevation on into the back garden/covered deck area at the West elevation.
loft area in a Belvedere style upper level of a new construction at vacant lot...seating doubles as sleeping for guests. There'd be a bathroom and bedroom and good view of lake to the west. Only 'high' windows to the East and North and south of the belvedere level....which are visible from the street or neighbours.
