Inside the Beltline is home to some of Raleigh's oldest and most established neighborhoods, from Hayes Barton and Five Points to Cameron Park and Historic Oakwood. Most lots here are smaller and in town, often shaded by mature trees and shaped by narrower street setbacks. Some properties also fall within Raleigh's historic overlay districts, which come with their own design guidelines. Building a pool in this part of the city takes more than a good design on paper. It takes local knowledge of tree protection rules, tight lot lines, and older infrastructure that newer suburbs simply don't have to work around.
Currin Outdoor Living is the pool building and design team homeowners inside the Beltline trust. We handle 3D pool design, work carefully around mature trees, and take care of permits and historic district approvals for ITB properties. From your first idea to the final finish, we manage every step, so your pool build goes smoothly and still fits the character of your neighborhood.

Read real stories from homeowners who trusted our team to design and build their dream backyards and luxury pools here in Raleigh, NC.
Working with Jon and his team was fantastic. Truly a professional company with phenomenal design work and attention to detail. The team did a great job and we couldn’t be happier with our new patio, built-in fire pit and landscaping.
I could not be more pleased with the work of this company. Beginning with Jon, who came out to help me plan the job, to the completion of the job today. Everything worked out exactly as we planned. The guys today were fun, competent,
and hard working.
Wonderfully professionally yet always approachable, our family had a great experience with Currin Outdoor Living. We knew we wanted a complete redesign of our backyard - but we had no idea where to start. Would recommend without reservation.
Jon Currin came to our home and listened to our thoughts, asked questions which proved to us he was thinking hard about how our family would live in the space, and then created a thoughtful hardscape and landscape design.
Currin Landscaping truly exceeded all my expectations! From the initial consultation to the final touches they were fully engaged and very responsive, their entire team displayed exceptional professionalism and expertise.
They transformed our back yard into an amazing retreat for my family and I, combining a well planned design with meticulous attention to detail. Our project was completed in a timely manner, and the results were simply amazing.
Based in Raleigh, NC, we work with homeowners across Wake County and the wider Triangle, including neighborhoods inside the Beltline as well as Cary, Apex, Morrisville, and Knightdale. You can see our complete coverage on our Service Areas page. Clients located outside of North Carolina can also work with us on design-only projects.
Once construction begins, most pools inside the Beltline take about 12 to 16 weeks to build. Because many properties here sit in historic districts or have mature trees close to the build site, you should also plan for extra time on permitting and tree protection approval before digging starts. From your first consultation to your first swim, most ITB projects land somewhere between 16 and 20 weeks.
Every pool we build inside the Beltline is priced around the actual property, since smaller in-town lots, mature trees, and historic district requirements can all affect the design. Rather than working off a generic price sheet, we map everything out during our 3D pool design phase, so you know exactly where your budget stands. To get a quote for your specific lot, reach out through our Contact Us page.
Yes, our team regularly works in neighborhoods like Hayes Barton, Five Points, Cameron Park, and Historic Oakwood. We're familiar with the tighter lot lines and tree protection rules that come with these older, established parts of Raleigh. If you'd like to see examples of pools we've built nearby, our Portfolio page is a great place to start.
Pools are allowed throughout most of the Beltline, but properties in historic districts like Boylan Heights or Historic Oakwood may need additional design approval before construction starts. Many yards also require a tree protection plan if mature trees are close to the build area. We handle this paperwork as part of our pool design process, so it's already taken care of by the time your project moves into construction.
