back porches
Outdoor sitting areas
Back porches are covered outdoor platforms attached to the rear of a house, typically accessed through a back door.
Unlike front porches, which face the street and serve a more public function, back porches offer privacy and often overlook a yard or garden.
They serve as transitional spaces between indoors and outdoors, used for relaxation, informal socializing, or practical tasks.
We spent summer evenings on the back porch watching fireflies.
