While this past winter was not the worst in memory, it still had all the gray, dreary and chilly hallmarks of the season. But spring will soon shine through the gloom and before long, summer will be in full bloom with hot days and humid nights. When the mercury rises, few amenities please homeowners like their own in-ground pool. Great for cooling off, staying in shape or just floating around with a cocktail, pools add an outdoor dimension to properties. This week, the Syosset-Jericho Tribune profiles three sold homes featuring in-ground pools.
