Don’t forget to include ceiling fans and outlets in your screened porch design! Want more relaxation? Consider a hanging porch bed.
How much time do you spend outdoors? If you want to make the most of the spring and summer seasons without feeling overwhelmed by heat and bugs – consider investing in a new, screened porch! Decks and porches each offer various benefits to homeowners, but there is something unique, quaint, and inviting about a screened porch. These features are highly customizable, so how do you decide which features matter most? Let’s talk about three ideal screened porch features for ultimate relaxation that will enhance your ability to enjoy life outdoors this season.
Ample Space
Before you build a masterpiece, you’re going to need a foundation. You know what they say – go big or go… oh wait, you’re already home. While the size of your screened porch may not seem like a feature in and of itself, you should design your screened porch with ample space in mind. It’s better to plan for a large and accommodating screened porch that can house all your ideal features comfortably, rather than waiting until after the project is complete to realize your screened porch is too small or cramped.
Swings and Seating
How ideal is a screened porch if you don’t have a place to comfortably sit and relax with friends and family? Space for seating like patio furniture or wicker couches is pretty standard as far as screened porch design is concerned, but swing-style hanging seating is becoming an increasingly popular feature. Some homeowners opt for a subtle swinging chair, while others aim for full relaxation with a hanging porch bed swing. Click here for some inspiration examples.
Music and Entertainment
Are you interested in streaming music? Installing a wall mounted television? When you talk to your contractor about your screen porch design, be sure to ask what your options are for implementing outdoor entertainment. Many screened porches can be pre-wired to accommodate outdoor speakers. What better way to swing your troubles away than to the sound of your favorite artist?
