Project Overview

This Oceanport, NJ waterfront project brings together hardscaping, outdoor living, and detailed landscaping on a property that runs from the house down to a private dock. Scenic View Landscaping designed the space so the pool patio serves as the hub of the backyard, with the lawn and water view opening up beyond it.

The project includes a paver pool patio built on a raised stone wall, a built-in fire pit with seating wall, a built-in outdoor kitchen with bar seating, a stone pillar and paver steps, hydrangea and perennial planting beds, an arborvitae privacy hedge, and landscape lighting throughout.

Waterfront Pool Patio Design and Layout

The pool patio sits directly off the sunroom and is elevated above the lawn on a stone veneer retaining wall, which keeps the patio level and gives it a defined, built-in look from the water side. Paver steps flanked by a stone pillar with a lantern light lead down to the lawn, so the grade change becomes a feature rather than an obstacle.

The patio is organized into three zones around the rectangular pool: a fire pit lounge on one end, an outdoor kitchen and bar on the other, and a dining area under umbrellas in between. The wide lawn stretches from the patio steps to the dock, preserving the open water view.

A mature arborvitae hedge along the side property line provides year-round privacy without closing in the space.

Paver Pool Patio and Hardscaping in Oceanport, NJ

The hardscaping was designed for entertaining, durability, and long-term performance near the water, featuring:

Raised Paver Pool Patio: Light-toned pavers in a modular pattern surround the rectangular pool and its wide entry steps, offering room for dining, lounging, and circulation on every side.

Raised Pool Wall: A stone veneer wall supports the patio and creates a clean elevated edge along the lawn side, softened by a continuous planting bed at its base.

Built-In Fire Pit with Seating Wall: A square built-in fire pit anchored by an L-shaped seating wall creates a dedicated evening gathering spot at the end of the patio.

Built-In Outdoor Kitchen: A stone-faced outdoor kitchen with built-in grill and bar-height counter seating sits at the house end of the patio, keeping cooking and dining close to the sunroom.

Stone Pillar and Paver Steps: Wide paver steps and a matching stone pillar topped with a lantern light provide a safe, attractive transition from the raised patio down to the lawn.

Landscaping and Lighting

The landscaping was designed to soften the raised wall, add seasonal color, and frame the patio from the lawn and water.

Features include:

  • Hydrangea and ornamental grass planting beds along the base of the raised pool wall
  • A full hydrangea border along the side fence line beneath the arborvitae hedge
  • River rock borders at the patio steps and pillar for clean, low-maintenance edges
  • Mature arborvitae privacy screen along the side property line
  • Foundation plantings along the sunroom and rear of the home
  • Low-voltage path lighting and a pillar lantern for safe nighttime use

A Complete Waterfront Outdoor Living Space

This Oceanport project shows how a raised pool patio, built-in fire pit, and outdoor kitchen can be combined into one cohesive entertaining space while keeping the lawn open to the water. Each element was positioned so the patio feels like an extension of the home and the dock feels like a natural destination beyond it.
