This five-bedroom, six-bath mansion in Wayne has a gorgeous flagstone saltwater pool with an automatic cover as a high-tech twist, and a separate hot tub as well. But what really makes this home awesome is that it has an ICE RINK! I mean, what is an ice rink except a shallow, frozen pool, am I right? There's also a game room, so that you can entertain yourself with a game of pool when you’re done with the pool.
