Practical Benefits
Beyond the beauty of a new portico or porch there are also several practical benefits including a good return-on-investment, enlarged living space, protection for your front door and foyer and more.
Curb Appeal:
An impressive front entry is a critical aspect of curb appeal. The most dramatic transformation happens when a “flat-faced” home receive a new portico or full, covered front porch. Front entryways are gracefully defined with architectural components that beautifully complement your home’s style.
Added Value:
Enhanced curb appeal is always desirable, and can translate into a higher selling price for your home down the road. Realtors often mention the importance of the front entry in photo listings and buyer visits.
Protection from the Elements:
A front entry with no covering exposes your guests and home to damaging sun and rain. A porch or portico provides great protection for your front door, hardware, trim, lighting—and even, foyer. And your guests will truly appreciate it on rainy or hot, sunny day. It can even help lower your summer energy bills.
Magnetic Affect:
If you have children or neighbors, nothing beats a covered front porch for entertaining! It’s a wonderful place to socialize, catch up on the latest news or just relax and enjoy the company.
Living is Easy:
An expansive, shady front porch offers a delightful retreat. Add ceiling fans, comfortable chairs and tables and you’ve just added alot more square footage to your home! Not to mention, a special place to unwind and watch the rest of the world whirl by.
