1) I would remove the fence completely, and replace it all around with some tall hedge trees like Thuja Evergreens or Lombardy Poplar. ( I would talk to your neighbors first, but I'm sure they would welcome this intervention.) Plus, it would create a little garden like sanctuary.

2) Match the siding/color of the pool house and garage to match the color of the house, whatever you choose.

3)DO NOT put down outdoor carpet. Replace with nice river rocks along the outside of the pool.

4)Leave the concrete, it will not seem as stark with the above changes.
