110 Supreme Farmhouse Porch Decor Ideas (73)

Passing the afternoon on a comfortable front porch is one of life’s little pleasures. At this era farmhouse, the open air room faces the street, visually inviting neighbors up for a chat. But it wasn’t always so welcoming: Previous owners had ­enclosed it.
