Your goal should be to build the largest porch you can afford based on how you will use it through the years. If your children are small consider how much space will be needed as they grow. If they are about to leave home a smaller porch might be ideal.
Before you build consider the location of the sun during the day to determine how it will affect your new addition. If you want to use it during the hottest times of the day, consider locating it on the shaded side of your home or under shade trees if possible. If that is not feasible, include shutters, shades, or blinds in your design to block the sun.
