House Plans with Outdoor Living Space

It’s hard to dislike a house plan with great outdoor living. A house plan with a grand wraparound front porch, for instance, exudes welcoming and dazzling curb appeal. Similarly, a home plan with an outdoor kitchen is pretty hard for a BBQ lover to resist. The below collection of outdoor living house plans feature designs fit with these amenities and more.

As you browse through our outdoor living home designs, consider what kind of climate you plan to build in. For example, hot climates may require a covered porch for added shade. On the other hand, a screened porch might be the best option if the area is infamous for its mosquito population.

If romantic outdoor space that you can enjoy with your special someone is more to your liking, look for floor plans that feature a private master porch, deck or terrace. If extra unique and lavish outdoor living is what you seek, select a plan with a courtyard featured right in the center of the home's design (how cool would that be)?!

As you shop, remember to always think strategically. For example, if you're thinking about adding a pool out back, or simply plan to have a lot of parties on your super cool back patio, consider a house plan that offers a bathroom or powder room with direct access to the outdoor living space.
