Crafting the Perfect Front Yard

Your front yard is the first thing your guests see when visiting, and so having a beautifully designed exterior and entryway that is welcoming and inviting will go a long way towards making your visitors feel at home. First impressions last forever, and by incorporating design elements like those found at some of our model homes your front yard will be one your guests will love to visit. Here are some ideas for creating the perfect entryway.

Entertaining Spaces

A beautifully designed front yard should not be one that your family and friends only enjoy when coming or going – the front yard of our Camelot Homes Bronco model includes a metal fire table offset by chairs that make for a great place for entertaining and conversation. Entertaining areas in both the front and back of the house gives you and your guests variability that you can enjoy spending time together in different settings.

Clean Lines and Designs

Our model at Shea Homes Storyrock marries modern architectural details with the floral and fauna of the desert landscape. The geometric lines and minimal exterior contrast beautifully with the rugged and natural feel of cacti, sun-bleached rocks and other Arizona landscaping details. In the same way our Sereno Canyon plays with the polarity of modern, understated architecture with green and desert elements.

Privacy or Openness

Many people prioritize having privacy when it comes to their front yard designs, while others prefer an open and welcoming exterior. Our models at the Preserves at San Tan showcase how both of these design preferences can work for an outdoor space. In one, glass doors really open the front interior of the home, allowing an effortless flow from outdoor to indoor. In another, an intimate seating area for two is situated at front, with sparsely placed windows and a private garage allowing sunlight in but still providing a lot of privacy.

A beautiful home starts with a beautiful front yard, and our design process ensures we can bring the ideas for your space to life. For tips on designing a front yard everyone can enjoy, please contact us today.
