No. 14 Porches & Sunrooms · Mountain & Cabin
Screened Timber Porch with Stone Fireplace
Under heavy timber beams, this screened porch features flagstone flooring, potted flowers, and a dark wicker sectional arranged before a stone fireplace with an overhead TV overlooking a pine-covered valley.
Design notes
Mountain and cabin design lets the landscape lead. Look for heavy timber and log, stacked stone and boulders, steel and dark stains that recede against the trees, and decks and terraces that reach toward the view. Fire is central — a stone fireplace, a fire pit ringed with Adirondack chairs — and hot tubs earn their place. Planting is pines, aspens, grasses and wildflowers; paving is flagstone and gravel that can take the snow.
What to look for
- Depth — eight feet for chairs, ten or more for a table or a swing
- How the steps and railings meet the walk and the yard
- Ceiling: height, material and whether a fan or lights are built in
