In a town where swimming pools are common, these three are anything but ordinary. They not only provide a place for exercise or a cooling dip, but they also give a focal point to the homes they so beautifully complement.

Choose your favorite from this trio of glamorous Sarasota pools currently on the market, each with a showplace home attached.
