The Grand
Commanding Design. Refined Relaxation.
The Grand is a 40-foot rectangular fiberglass pool with an 8-foot deep end, shallow-end bench seating, generous side entry steps, and a clear end-to-end swim corridor. The shape is straightforward: one long rectangle, deep on one end, with a bench at the shallow end where swimmers can stand at shoulder depth.

Is This the Right Pool for You?
The Grand is a strong fit when you have a larger backyard and want a pool that accommodates both active swimming and comfortable lounging in the same shell. The 40-foot length gives you a real end-to-end swim corridor — long enough for laps without the cost and complexity of a dedicated lap pool — and the 8-foot deep end supports diving and deep-water play for older kids and adults.
The shallow-end bench seating matters for day-to-day use. It means multiple adults can sit at shoulder depth along one side without bunching up on the steps, which is a recurring issue on pools with only a small entry bench. For homes in Overland Park, Leawood, and the wider Johnson County area with yards that can handle a 40×16 footprint, The Grand delivers a traditional rectangular pool that works for families and for entertaining.
Feature Details
The shallow-end bench runs along one side of the shallow zone and seats several adults side-by-side at roughly chest-to-shoulder depth. That matters for parties and for parents watching younger swimmers — you can sit in the water rather than perching on the coping, and you’re not taking up the step area that people need for getting in and out.
The side entry steps are set generously wide rather than the narrow corner stairs common on older rectangular designs. Kids can use them without single-filing, and the step treads are sized for adult feet, not the cramped treads you find on some import shells.
The swim corridor is the clear, unobstructed section between the shallow-end bench and the deep-end drop. At 40 feet total length, that corridor gives you a usable lap swim lane — not a full competitive lap, but enough distance for fitness swimming without turning every few strokes.
The 8-foot deep end is on the deeper side of what fiberglass pools typically offer. It’s deep enough for diving when installed with proper clearances, and it gives confident swimmers room to dive down and play without hitting bottom.
Also Consider These Pools
- The Mediterranean — the same 40-foot footprint in a free-form shape instead of rectangular.
- The Infinity — another 40-foot rectangular with the same 8-foot deep end, if you prefer a cleaner profile without the bench.
- The Pinnacle — rectangular at 30/35/40 feet with a shallower deep end if 8 feet feels too much.
- The Caribbean — 40-foot free-form with wrap-around bench, similar footprint but curved aesthetic.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How many sizes does The Grand come in?
- The Grand is offered in a single size — the Grand™ 40, at 40 feet long by 15 feet 6 inches wide. Unlike some Leisure Pools models that come in three or more sizes, The Grand is a single-size design built around that specific footprint.
- How deep is The Grand at the deep end?
- The deep end is 8 feet, and the shallow end is 4 feet. That 4-foot difference gives a gradual slope across the 40-foot length. The 8-foot depth supports diving and is deeper than the typical 5–6 foot deep end on most rectangular fiberglass pools.
- Is The Grand a good fit for a standard Johnson County backyard?
- The Grand needs a yard that can handle a 40-foot by 15.5-foot pool plus deck clearance and setbacks, so it’s generally a better fit for larger lots in areas like Leawood, Olathe, and the more spacious neighborhoods of Overland Park. For smaller lots, The Pinnacle or The Supreme at 30 feet may work better.
- Does The Grand include a built-in spa or tanning ledge?
- No. The Grand is a straightforward rectangular pool with bench seating along one side of the shallow end, but no integrated spa and no tanning ledge. If you want a built-in spa, look at The Icon or The Ultimate instead.
