An Enclosed-Off Front PorchThe enclosed-off front porch is the ideal enclosed porch. It is a porch that is turned into a functional room by enclosing it with windows and a door. It can be a place to sit and watch the weather or a place to catch some sun when it is too cold outside.It is also used as a storage room for the tools you will need for the yard work (snow shovel, broom, etc.), a game room for the kids, and also as an easy to clean place where your can remove your dirty shoes and outerwear before entering the home.Depending on how your enclosed-off front porch is structured, it can also be counted as an extra room in your house. This means that you can add it in as part of the livable square footage of your home if you ever decide to sell your home.The Smaller Enclosed Front PorchIf you have just a small front porch it can be enclosed just as easily as a larger front porch. The only difference is that you won’t be able to use it as a place to sit or as a room addition to your home.Instead, it will be used as a place of protection from the weather.It will be a place to put grocery bags on a rainy day so they don’t get wet. It will be a place that will protect you from getting wet and cold as you are trying to unlock the front door.
