Courtyard

If you're seeking a private outdoor space in your new home, you will want a house design with a courtyard. Usually surrounded by a low wall or fence, with at least one side adjacent to the home, a courtyard is a common feature of a southwestern or Mediterranean home. Courtyards provide an intimate place for entertaining or a quiet place for gardening.

Heat up the night with an outdoor fireplace house plan. These house plan designs feature outdoor living areas (including porches, patios, lanais, verandas, and screened porches) with fireplaces.

The porches in this collection are quite spacious and are great for relaxation and entertaining. They often are accessed from more than one room in the house and all are large enough to place furniture for entertaining.
