Outdoor living: 7 ideas for your home

Spring is in the air and dreams of enjoying warmer weather are finally becoming a reality. This is a great time of year to take advantage of outdoor living. Wake up with your coffee on the porch. Host casual dinner parties from the patio. Watch the kids burn off extra energy splashing in the pool.

Extend the inside of your home outside for even more space to relax, entertain, and reflect your style. From charming porches to tropical oasis, we’ve collected ideas and inspirations from Lennar homes across the country.
