living room – with a pool?

Is this a living room or not? I certainly think so. This Chelsea townhouse in New York certainly has something unique – an 8-foot deep pool in the middle of the house. I love the idea of having a warm indoor pool, but at the same time they normally smell of chlorine and bring a lot of moisture in the air.

Certainly this house offers “waterside” drinks option, but what about potential damage to all this designer furniture?
