More details on House Plans with Courtyards House Plan features
For an old fashioned feel, choose a plan with a stately southern-style veranda, Victorian wraparound or romantic and porte-cochere that extends over the driveway. For a double dose of porch-side pleasure, select a floor plan that features a two-story porch that opens off of living areas on the first floor and bedrooms on the second. If mid-century modern or contemporary is more your style, you'll find home designs that incorporate sleek balconies, open breezeways, and dramatic decks. Although well-suited for homes sited on level lots, porches can also provide a comfortable way to enjoy the outdoors on narrow, sloped, or marshy sites. Whether you're dreaming of spending afternoons sipping iced tea or planning parties that include the whole neighborhood, you'll find a plan that can make it come true.
