Sugar Hollow Builders - Green Design and Construction in Charlottesville Virginia

Screened or unscreened, covered or uncovered, porches extend the living space outdoors. Porches offer a comfortable, AC-free place to sit, eat, watch the trees and wildlife. This becomes a three- or four-season place in central Virginia. Many of our clients find these to be their favorite spots.

A porch doesn't need to be large to draw you outside. Built-in benches, screens, and pergolas can define or protect the space. Different weather- and insect-resistant woods offer different aesthetics and durability. Lighting can help create the feeling of an outdoor living room.

These are transitional spaces, a middle ground between inside and outside. They help create a pause, a link between out and in. A porch that is only accessible from inside the house extends the privacy of the home. One that allows a step-down to the ground is flexible enough for larger gatherings of people.
