Which type of screened porch do you prefer?
A screened porch is by no means an outdated outdoor home addition. It is still just as practical and luxurious as ever, and possibly more so now with the fittings they can have. Your screened porch can come complete with its own heating, cooling, ventilation, and lighting. Even on a chilly or hot day, your screened porch can still be a pleasant place to be. If you are looking to build one, it can be helpful to learn about the three main types of screened porches available.
Attached Screened Porch
A screened porch can be attached to your home. You can access it either through your back door or through your patio or deck. This style is like a home addition. It is like another room in the house, but it also gives you the fresh air of the great outdoors. If you are looking to create a highly affordable bonus room, then a screened porch addition could be for you.
Detached Screened Porch
Another name for a detached screened porch is a freestanding screened porch. It can stand beside the house or at a completely different spot on the property. For example, your detached screened porch could be situated amid lush landscaping, or it could be your sheltered poolside retreat. A standalone screened porch can offer the rest you need near or far from your home.
Screened-in Porch
Do you have an existing front or back porch? If you love your porch but would like more privacy or protection from insects, you can screen it in, making it a sort of enclosed room while still maintaining the sense of being outdoors in every way. You can also create a screened-in porch by screening in the space under a high-elevation deck.
Bonus: Screening in Your Gazebo or Pavilion
It doesn’t have to be a porch for you to screen it in. If you prefer a gazebo or a pavilion, you can screen those in, too. If you live in central Maryland, see what Freedom Fence and Deck can do for you!
