Enjoy Your Garden from the Comfort of a Veranda

Adding a veranda to your home can greatly enhance your ability to utilize and enjoy your garden space. A veranda provides an outdoor area directly connected to your house where you can relax and observe your garden.

One major benefit of a veranda is that it allows you to comfortably enjoy views of your garden in a wider range of weather conditions. Your plants and hardscaping will look glorious on a sunny day, but when temperatures soar or the skies open up, a veranda gives you a shaded, covered vantage point to still see and appreciate your garden. Similarly, as evenings cool down, a veranda extends the time you can spend outside before having to retreat indoors.

Verandas also provide space to pursue gardening-related pastimes, like having a cup of tea while flipping through garden catalogues or potting fresh cuttings from your garden in containers.

You’ll have a close-up perch for watching birds, butterflies, and other wildlife visiting your garden. For gardeners who use sketching or painting as creative outlets, a veranda offers an appealing spot to capture images of your garden on paper.

Here are some occasions where having a veranda can be useful:

  • Entertaining guests – A veranda provides extra outdoor space to host gatherings like backyard barbecues, cocktail parties, or afternoon tea. It gives guests a place to mingle outdoors while being shaded and protected from weather elements.

  • Relaxing/lounging – You can furnish a veranda with comfortable patio seating, hammocks, or porch swings to create a cosy, peaceful spot for relaxing, reading, or taking a nap. The fresh air and connection to the outdoors enhance relaxation.

  • Garden/nature viewing – A veranda overlooking your garden or landscaping gives you front-row seats to the beauty of your yard. Watch birds at feeders, observe plants growing, identify wildlife visitors, etc. Stay sheltered as you enjoy viewing nature.

  • Outdoor dining – Meals or coffee/tea on a veranda surrounded by garden scenery make for an elevated dining experience. The space allows you to dine al fresco even on rainy days.

  • Children’s play space – Designate part of your veranda as a kids play area with toys, games, art supplies, etc. so children have a safe, covered outdoor area to play as you watch over them.

  • Gardening staging – A veranda provides close-at-hand space for placing gardening bags, tools, pots, soil bags, and other items you’ll need easy access to while working in your garden.

  • Crafting spot – The natural lighting and airy roominess of a veranda makes it a great spot for craft hobbies like painting, sewing, woodworking, pottery making, etc.

Whether you desire a small, intimate veranda or a grand, wrapped veranda fit for garden parties, adding this versatile structural feature can enhance and expand the ways you interact with the garden you’ve worked so hard to cultivate and beautify. Let your veranda become your garden’s perfect companion and a new favourite spot to unwind.
