Commission approves pool and small pool house at Leadenw Drive property listed on National Register
Summary
A CHA to install an in‑ground pool, a diminutive pool house and related site work at 1844 Leadenw Drive — a property containing the National Register‑listed John Cabbrook Plantation Bridge — was approved after staff concluded the new work would be subordinate, screened by vegetation and sited about 230 feet from the bridge.
Staff presented a CHA for an accessory dwelling unit (pool house) and an in‑ground pool at 1844 Leadenw Drive, a 10‑acre property that includes the John Cabbrook Plantation Bridge (a National Register‑listed resource). The proposal locates the pool house approximately 230 feet from the historic bridge, within a well‑vegetated yard; staff concluded visibility between the bridge and the proposed work will be obscured by existing vegetation and that construction equipment will not cross the bridge.
The project architect said the pool house would be subordinate in scale and match the main house materials. The commission voted to approve the request based on staff findings and the motion passed on recorded roll call. Staff noted the standard condition that any major changes be returned to the commission for review.
